Julia Harrison lives in Brooklyn and works at Architectural Digest, where she writes and edits trend and culture content with a design focus. She is also the founder of saloon, a curated community newsletter, and she maintains a too-personal newsletter called orzo bimbo once described: “like someone with a severe headache who doesn’t realize they are hitting themselves in the head with a hammer.”

She has written and edited previously for Coveteur, the Sewanee Review, and passerby. She has worked for magazines A Public Space and the Sewanee Review, in publishing for Melville House Books, in publicity for Press Shop PR, in partnerships for passerby, for two artist residencies: MacDowell and Nocefresca, and in admissions and curation for 19 months at Pratt Institute so she could afford living in New York and see doctors when it felt necessary. She has been interviewed a lot (here, for example, and here).

She won the Tennessee Williams Award for creative writing at her alma mater, Sewanee; the University of the South, where she studied English and Classics.
