Stephanie Gallman
Writer

Stephanie Gallman has loved news and snark since she was old enough to know what they were, so becoming a writer for the Daily Skimm was a natural fit.

Before joining theSkimm, Stephanie spent nearly two decades as a writer and producer at CNN where she traveled the country and world covering presidential elections, inaugurations and breaking news stories. She produced interviews with Congressman John Lewis, Warriors Head Coach Steve Kerr and the band Dead and Company. She covered the Trump-Putin summit in Helsinki, Finland, the Trump-Kim Jung Un summit in Hanoi, Vietnam and President Biden's trip to the COP26 Climate Summit in Edinburgh, Scotland, among others.

Her personal essay, “An optimist's journey toward dropping the 'D-bomb'” about being diagnosed with depression garnered worldwide attention and led to an appearance on Sanjay Gupta, MD.

As well as appearing on CNN, Stephanie has also appeared on the nationally syndicated Bert Show radio program. Her work has been featured in Southern Living, Reader's Digest, Atlanta Magazine, and Skirt! Magazine, among other various publications.

Her work has contributed to several Emmy and Peabody wins for CNN, including the 2022 live special about the January 6th insurrection, the 2008 presidential election coverage and the Gulf oil spill.

A proud southerner, Stephanie was raised in South Carolina and graduated from the University of Georgia (Go Dawgs!). When she’s not agonizing over the perfect subject line copy or dabbling in standup comedy, she and her husband are raising three daughters and a black lab named Phil.
