Joshua Rothman is The New Yorker’s archive editor. He joined the magazine in 2012, and is a frequent contributor to newyorker.com, where he writes primarily about the magazine’s archive and about books and culture. Rothman grew up near Washington, D.C., and graduated from Princeton University. Before coming to The New Yorker, he was a doctoral candidate in the English department at Harvard, an instructor in public policy at the Harvard Kennedy School, and a columnist for the Ideas section of the Boston Globe.

Becky (beckyofthe19and9) I started reading it, but got annoyed when "defiantly" was used instead of "definitely" and quit. Huge pet peeve.
