Amy X. Wang

Quartz reporter Amy X. Wang is leaving the financial news website to join Rolling Stone magazine as its music business reporter.

Wang joined Quartz in September 2015 from Slate, where she was an intern. She covered business of creativity and the future of work — with particularly keen interests in the psychology of music, genre evolution, the media industry, unorthodox career paths, and the fate of the physical university.

She previously wrote for The Atlantic, Slate, and The Economist, and holds a degree in English literature from Yale University.

Wang speaks French and Mandarin.
