Elaine Welteroth          

Award-Winning Journalist, TV Host, Former Editor-in-Chief of Teen Vogue & Maternal Health Advocate

Elaine Welteroth is an award-winning journalist, TV host, and author of the instant New York Times bestselling book "More Than Enough," which won the 2020 NAACP Image Award for outstanding literary work. At age 29, she was named the youngest editor-in-chief in Condè Nast’s history, where under her leadership, Teen Vogue evolved into a platform that elevates marginalized voices and amplifies political discourse. After spending more than a decade climbing the ranks of magazine journalism, Welteroth shares her expert fashion industry advice as a judge on Bravo’s "Project Runway.” Her MasterClass on redesigning your career debuted in 2021 and has helped thousands navigate career transitions. Now, her popular new advice column “Ask Elaine” appears in The Washington Post, exploring how to navigate pivots in life with more ease and less angst. In addition to The Washington Post, her writing appears in the New York Times, British Vogue and Time.

In April 2024, Welteroth launched birthFUND, a movement for maternal health committed to expanding access to safe and affirming birth care across the country. Alongside founding funders such as Serena Williams, Kelly Rowland and Karlie Kloss and corporate partners such as SoFi, Pampers and BabyList, birthFUND has raised over $1.3M for families seeking midwives, while raising awareness and challenging the way the United States approaches maternal healthcare.

Welteroth is a new mom living with her husband in L.A.
