Jillian Kramer

My name is Jillian Kramer, and I’m a journalist who’s currently based in New Orleans. My work has appeared in the New York Times, Scientific American, Travel + Leisure, EatingWell, Food & Wine, and other outlets. I often write about science and adventure, and I profile interesting people.

I’ve written about a female astronaut who paved the way for other women in NASA; a llama whose antibodies could be the key to treating the novel coronavirus; how our drinking habits have shifted in quarantine; an island where real-life dragons live; the perils — and utter adorableness — of a monkey sanctuary; and the merits of having a mini-fridge.
