For more than a decade, Alex French has been a journalist, editor, and consultant at national magazines and web projects such as Fatherly, Vanity Fair, Esquire, GQ, Grantland, Wired, The Atlantic, New York, This American Life, Details, and the New York Times Magazine. He is well-known for deep, nuanced investigations into misunderstood subcultures and personalities as well as for collaborating with fellow writers, designers, and artists on immersive cultural reads. He has reported on everything from yacht cruises around Central America to an intelligence community plot to take down a Fox News Analyst. From the complicated lives of polyamorists to the mysterious death of a Muslim Marine Corps recruit. From Hollywood’s IP gold rush to the secret history of a Cold War Mastermind. Alex consistently creates the kind of IP that Hollywood starves for. His work has been optioned by HBO, AMC, CBS Studios, Warner Brothers, and Topic Media. His book collaboration “Sneakers'' (Harper Collins, 2018) inspired Lena Waithe to create her 2020 Quibi series, “You Ain’t Got These.” Alex is the host of season one of Topic media’s upcoming podcast franchise, Imposters (release TBD).
