Erin Douglass

Book reviewer and copy editor

Email: Erin Douglass

Erin Douglass wears two Monitor hats – the fedora of contributing book reviewer since 2021 and the visor of copy editor since 2023. She tries not to wear them simultaneously, because that would look funny.

Erin has called many places home including Los Angeles, the Hudson Valley in New York, southern Germany, and Seattle. She’s currently based in Eugene, Oregon.

She holds a B.A. from Pomona College, where she majored in language, culture, and gender and spent a semester studying in northwest India. Before working with the Monitor, she held editing and writing positions in the book publishing, legal, and financial worlds.

Why is Christian Science in our name?

Our name is about honesty. The Monitor is owned by The Christian Science Church, and we’ve always been transparent about that.

The Church publishes the Monitor because it sees good journalism as vital to progress in the world. Since 1908, we’ve aimed “to injure no man, but to bless all mankind,” as our founder, Mary Baker Eddy, put it.

Here, you’ll find award-winning journalism not driven by commercial influences – a news organization that takes seriously its mission to uplift the world by seeking solutions and finding reasons for credible hope.
