About Stephanie Wittels Wachs Books
Stephanie Wittels Wachs is cofounder and CEO of Lemonada Media, an award-winning podcast network on a mission to "make life suck less." She created and hosts Last Day, Lemonada's Webby, Gracie, and Third Coast Award-winning flagship show. Its first season focused on the opioid crisis, which took the life of her brother, writer-producer-comedian Harris Wittels (Parks and Recreation, Master of None). Wittels Wachs is also the author of the bestselling memoir Everything Is Horrible and Wonderful: A Tragicomic Memoir of Genius, Heroin, Love, and Loss, which Kirkus Reviews hailed as a "a powerful debut." Wittels Wachs serves as an executive producer across Lemonada's slate of chart-topping podcasts, including Wiser Than Me with Julia Louis-Dreyfus, which was named Apple's Best Podcast of the Year. She lives on California's central coast with her husband, two kids, two dogs, and an ungodly amount of houseplants.
