Jeanette Beebe

I’m a journalist focused on aging, tech, and the politics and policies that shape health care. My work has appeared in TIME, TIME Health, The Daily Beast, Forbes, MarketWatch, Medscape, Mental Floss, PBS/Next Avenue, NPR/WHYY, and Fast Company, where my reporting on health and health data privacy was featured as one of the Aspen Institute's “Five Best Ideas of the Day.” But my finest moment might be when I somehow managed to gross out The New York Post, who called the pizza chef robot I profiled in Scientific American “creepier than lice and spiders.” I also write a daily newsletter for the Center for Cooperative Media at Montclair State University — it's a roundup of NJ news. I occasionally take gigs as a fact-checker and podcast producer, and my work as a freelance recordist (tape syncer) has been broadcast by the BBC, Gimlet Media, KALW, WBUR, and NPR/ProPublica’s “Lost Mothers” series.
