Atlanta

Caroline Ervin is an Atlanta-based feminist investigator working to uncover the hidden histories of women who’ve changed the world. As co-host of the rad-lady-centric podcast Stuff Mom Never Told You, Caroline employs her journalism background in her new-media approach to educating people about health, history and pop culture through a gendered lens.

In her role as a public speaker, she’s addressed issues ranging from sexism and STEM jobs to social media and body image as part of the SXSW Interactive festival, the Clemson University Women’s Leadership Conference and Vanderbilt University’s Eating Disorders Awareness Week. A highlight remains educating a coed group at a fundraiser about the power and beauty of the clitoris.

A 2006 graduate of the University of Georgia’s Grady College of Journalism, Caroline worked for several years as a copy editor at the Augusta Chronicle before parlaying her grammar-snob experience into an editor role for edutainment powerhouse HowStuffWorks.com. Between editing for HSW and researching for SMNTY, her brain is filled with oddball trivia -- and she’s hungry for more.
