UD alumna Nora Kelly Lee (AS 12) is a contributing writer at The Atlantic. She previously served as a senior editor on the magazine’s politics desk. Lee is a proud Blue Hen, but she credits her career to field experience at The Review, where she worked as a writer and editor. This year, UD's independent student newspaper celebrates 140 years as a voice for students.
"I wouldn't have my job if I hadn't worked at The Review," said Lee in her UD Journalism profile. "UD's journalism professors are fantastic, but students who want to work in the field need to learn outside the classroom, too. And they should start with The Review."
In her role on The Atlantic's politics team, Lee directed coverage of the 2018 and 2020 elections, both impeachments of
President Donald Trump, and the January 6 insurrection, among other major
stories.
Lee graduated from UD with a B.A. in Spanish Language and Literature and minors in Journalism and Political Science. Working at The Review as a copy editor, copy chief, managing news editor and executive editor helped secure internships with The News Journal and Philadelphia Magazine. After graduation, she worked as an assistant managing editor for Philadelphia Magazine, a copy editor for Science magazine and a staff correspondent for National Journal before moving to The Atlantic.
