Hello.
My name is Cara Tallo.
After more than two decades in news and programming at NPR, I earned my MFA in Creative Writing from American University. Now I focus on writing about eating disorders, body image and women's health.
See my latest article for New York magazine's The Cut here.
I'm currently querying agents on a narrative nonfiction book based on my Master's thesis, focused on eating disorders and bigger bodies in the age of GLP-1's like Ozempic.
