Jerusalem Demsas will join The Atlantic’s editorial staff as a staff writer, covering housing and economy. She begins next month.
Currently, she is at Vox, where she has written on America’s housing crisis and co-hosts The Weeds podcast. Prior to Vox, she worked in political communications and on climate-change-policy research.
“Jerusalem is a force. She is extremely smart, creative, curious, and naturally drawn to counterintuitive ideas and arguments. We’re very happy that Jerusalem is joining the team,” said Jeffrey Goldberg, The Atlantic’s editor in chief.
