Who Is Libby Emmons?

Libby Emmons is a writer and influencer known for being the senior contributor to The Federalist and the senior editor for The Post Millenial. Despite being quite influential, I’ve come to find out that Libby isn’t really concerned about her social media presence but rather lets her writing do the talking if you know what I mean.

Educational Background

Libby is an adequately educated individual, holding a BA from Sarah Lawrence College, and an MFA from Columbia University.

Trivia

If there’s one thing we all know, being an influencer in the United States is not easy. Libby stands among a myriad of social media users who are always ready to shout, “off with her head”, metaphorically speaking 😂. With ‘cancel culture’ being the in thing in a generation where everything seems to be a sensitive topic, Libby does not hold back from her views and opinions, especially on X, a platform that boasts of its protection of free speech. She has also appeared on famous podcasts such as ‘The Howie Carr Radio Network’ and ‘American Thought Leaders’.

Even from the get-go, Libby’s X profile has a part that reads, “thoughtfully b*tchy”. So what kinds of topics does she cover? Ranging from social justice issues to gender-based topics, and political news, Libby covers it all. She is usually very critical of progressive politics and policymaking and makes satirical comments and videos whenever she comes upon something post-worthy. If you are familiar with The Post Millenial, you have most definitely read one of Libby’s pieces. Some of the topics she has written about include; Bullying in American schools, celebrity gossip and news, the upcoming presidential elections, international relations, and United States policies. 

It may come as a shock to many (it was definitely a shock to me) that Libby used to write about plays, fiction, and personal essays. I think that explains why many of her pieces are so entertaining and interactive. 

Family Life

Libby Emmons was married to Charles Marcus, a journalist and fellow writer. Charles writes mainly about culture and political opinion. Libby and her ex-husband have a 14-year-old son. 

Libby and her ex-husband married on October 11, 1998, and spent over two decades together before divorcing in 2019. Marcus shared a heartbreaking message for his followers on X confirming the matter.

She also has a baby brother whose pictures she shared on Instagram back in January 2023. Libby also has a step-sister.
