Laura Marie Meyers is an author, event moderator, and former entertainment editor. For nearly a decade she worked in media covering books, trends, and pop culture, and now she writes feel-good, nostalgic fiction. Her debut novel, THE MASH-UP, will be published by Putnam Books, an imprint of Penguin Random House, in 2026.

She earned her master’s in writing and publishing from DePaul University and studied communications at the University of San Diego. Originally from Chicago, Laura lives in the San Francisco Bay Area with her husband, two sons, and far too many concert t-shirts.
