Lauren Stroh is a writer and editor from Lake Charles, Louisiana.
I often write about the culture of the state. My essays on hurricanes appear in Oxford American, n+1, and Longreads. I’ve also written about Britney Spears for Oxford American and about Clementine Hunter’s African House for Country Roads.
For The Guardian, I reported on an effort to rebuild the coast from recycled glass made into sand. More recently, I visited the Angola Prison Rodeo for The Nation and wrote about The Angolite and the state of prison journalism for Oxford American.
My criticism has been published by Art in America, Artforum, ArtReview, Bookforum, e-flux, frieze, Hyperallergic, Momus, The Nation, Public Books, The Public Review, and many others.
My translations of Rene Ricard’s Spanish poetry appeared in The Brooklyn Rail.
I’ve written about Bedouin herbalism in the Sinai Peninsula for Atmos, where to shop in Mexico City for Condé Nast Traveler, and the Jamaican weed trade of the ‘70s, ‘80s, & ‘90s for Broccoli.
Editorial projects I have undertaken include copyediting, proofreading, and fact checking for Gato Negro Ediciones, an art publisher based in Mexico City, and the same for Stacy Kranitz’s pamphlet series, Ain’t No Grave Gonna Hold My Body Down, which features information about public health issues endemic to Appalachia.
I love the Freelance Solidarity Project, the digital media division of the National Writers Union.
