Abbie Martin Greenbaum is a writer, a reader, and an optimist.
Hello! It’s lovely to meet you.
Let me introduce myself. My name’s Abbie, and I write stories — often they’re about friend groups and/or coming of age a little later than you’re supposed to. Sometimes there’s a little bit of magic, because why not?
I have a B.A. in English and Cinema Studies from Oberlin College, and an M.F.A in Creative Writing from Vermont College of Fine Arts. I was born and raised in NYC, and I currently live in Brooklyn.
From 2018 through 2023, I worked as the Arts and Culture Editor for Dandelion Chandelier, where I covered everything from blockbusters to butter boards. I keep up with books, films, theater, and television the way that other people keep up with sports scores, and like all good millennials, I live on the internet. If you’re looking for someone to write about media with affection, insight, and attention to detail, then I’m your girl.
I wrote about Paul Taylor Dance Company for Playbill in 2022, and my debut short story “No Grown-ups” was published in Five Points Journal in May of 2024. I’m working on my first novel.
