Copy Editor

Peggy is a cookbook editor and writer, urban gardening/local food enthusiast, and the creator of ThursdayNightPizza.com, a food blog centered on making weekly pizzas from scratch. In her editing/writing life, she wrangles hundreds—sometimes thousands—of recipes each month from chefs, writers, and publishers all over the country; she also coaches authors through the cookbook publishing process.

As a freelance writer, Peggy contributes to a variety of publications and web sites, including a regular column on seasonal produce for GRID Magazine, a Philadelphia publication focused on green living. She also authors a bi-weekly newsletter for Fair Food, a non-profit dedicated to promoting sustainable agriculture in the Greater Philadelphia region. When she’s not working, Peggy can be found renovating her hundred-year-old rowhome, digging in the garden, or wandering outside in the sunshine.
