Erin Hebert is a copy editor, fact-checker, and journalist based in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
I have spent more than a decade working in daily newspapers, including The New York Times and the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. Let’s work together to make your writing impactful, precise, and inclusive.
Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
2016 – now
I’m currently on strike from my job at the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, but when I’m working, I’m a copy editor and page designer on the news desk. My specialties at the Post-Gazette include news front page design and features copy editing.
The New York Times Editing Center
2015 – 2016
My first job out of journalism school involved working with editors across The New York Times to copy edit stories for the company’s wire service. I also coordinated design and editing for various specialty publications, and I often compiled and edited New York Times features for international clients.
The Advocate
2014 – 2015
I spent a year as an intern at Louisiana’s largest daily newspaper, where I copy edited stories for every department and designed front pages.
