About Me

I graduated from Harvard in 2008, where I wrote a humor column for The Crimson. My experience as a freshman was either hilarious or traumatic, depending on who you ask, and I wrote a book about it. That Book About Harvard will be published by Sourcebooks in 2012.

I am a featured writer for CollegeHumor.com, and my writing can also be found in The Boston Globe, someEcards.com, and Dorkly.com, among other sites. I also write copy, and most recently I was the lead copywriter for the new website for The Middlesex School.

I’m represented by the Helen Zimmermann Literary Agency, and you can contact me at eakester@gmail.com. I respond to all emails, unless it’s about Viagra. In that case, it better be a great deal.
