Rosemary Counter is a writer, author and journalist based in Toronto. Since graduating from the University of Toronto with degrees in English and Women’s Studies, and a victory lap at Ryerson University in Book & Magazine Publishing, Rosemary’s been all freelance, all the time.

Her magazine work appears in everything from Maclean’s to Elle, Canadian Living to Reader’s Digest, Style at Home to The New Yorker. She also pops up in Chatelaine, Vanity Fair, Today’s Parent, Bon Appetit, Cottage Life and Canadian Business, as well as The Toronto Star, The Globe & Mail, The National Post, The Toronto Sun, The Washington Post and The New York Times.

Rosemary is currently rocking columns at various publications: “Ask an Expert” at Report on Business, “First Hand” at the Financial Post, and a books column at Zoomer (here I am chatting to my BFF Hillary Clinton, for example).

And in between deadlines, she wrote The Decadent Housewife: How to Live Lavishly on His Budget, a sassy aspirational lifestyle guide to idleness and luxury that’s nothing like her own life, she swears.
