Experience:
Louis Peitzman currently oversees content across all verticals at Best Life, managing a team of experienced writers and editors and helping craft editorial strategy.
Prior to becoming Best Life's Editor-in-Chief, he worked as the Deputy News Editor and helped transform the site's coverage of breaking, service-oriented news throughout the COVID pandemic. Before that, he contributed to the site as a freelance writer and editor, gaining a hands-on understanding of all the content areas Best Life has to offer.
In his career as a freelancer, he covered film, television, and theater, writing reviews, doing intensive reporting, and interviewing top industry names for publications like The New York Times, Vulture, Time, and Elle. He also served as the Deputy Arts & Entertainment Editor at BuzzFeed News.
Louis has been writing about arts and entertainment for 20 years, and has been focused on digital media for the last 15. While he loves sharing his passions with a wider audience, whether that means recommending a new movie or offering guidance on long-distance train travel, he is deeply committed to all lifestyle journalism, and thrives on sharing the latest need-to-know news and expert advice with readers.
