Nicole Cliffe (born September 2, 1982) is a Canadian writer and journalist living in Utah. Cliffe co-founded and co-edited the website The Toast with Daniel Mallory Ortberg. Cliffe co-writes a parenting advice column at Slate called "Care and Feeding."

Early life

Nicole Cliffe was born September 2, 1982[1][2] and grew up in Kingston, Ontario.[3] A first-generation college student,[3] she attended Harvard College on a full scholarship, studying English.[4][5] She graduated in 2005.[6] At Harvard, her friends included future journalists Amelia Lester, Matthew Yglesias, and Josh Barro.[7]

Career

Early career

Cliffe worked at a New York hedge fund[4] before becoming a writer. She drew attention for a Tumblr entitled Lazy Self-Indulgent Book Reviews[8] as well as a recurring book review column on The Awl called "Classic Trash".[9] In June 2011 Cliffe joined the Awl-network women's general interest site The Hairpin,[10] where she became book editor.[5][11][12] Through this work, Cliffe met future collaborator Daniel Mallory Ortberg, first over the internet, then later in person.[13]

The Toast

{{Main|The Toast}}

Cliffe and Ortberg left The Hairpin in 2013 to found a separate feminist general interest website The Toast, which Cliffe and Ortberg co-edited, later adding Nicole Chung as managing editor and Jaya Saxena as a staff writer.[14] (Lawyer Nick Pavich was originally the publisher and one-third owner of the site, but departed in the winter of 2013-2014).[15][11][16] Cliffe and her husband funded the site's launch.[15] The Toast published from July 1, 2013,[10] until July 1, 2016.[17] From October 15, 2014 to September 2015,[18] the project also included a sister site called The Butter; led by Roxane Gay, The Butter focused on personal essays and cultural criticism.[19] The Toast made a one-day return with new material on July 26, 2017.[20]

Writing and other projects

In addition to her editing and book reviews, Cliffe has drawn notice for her writing on a wide range of topics, including humor pieces,[21][22] collegiate financial aid,[17] and Christianity.[17] She has written advice columns for Elle and Catapult's magazine,[23][24] and in January 2018, became an advice columnist, with Carvell Wallace, at Slate. Their column, offering parenting advice, is called "Care and Feeding".[25]

In December 2017, Cliffe joined the board of directors of Electric Literature.[26]

Personal life

Cliffe lives in Utah with her husband and three children.[4][5] An atheist since college, she converted to Christianity in 2015.[27] She identifies as bisexual.[28]
