Deborah L. Cohen, Independent Writer & Editor 

What editors say...

"While many editors appreciate Deborah Cohen's reporting talents, it was her work ethic, ability to meet a deadline, and scrutiny of her own facts that most impressed me. Over the course of several days, she cheerfully worked through the evenings to deliver a series of drafts that culminated in one of this magazine's best long-form cover pieces in ages."
Daniel Comiskey, associate editor, Indianapolis Monthly magazine 

Deb is an accurate and engaging business columnist. She goes the extra mile to make sure she's covered all the bases for her readers. Deb's columns that strive to help small business owners make the most of marketing, getting credit, networking and cracking the Internet have been well-liked by readers. They appreciate such a steady hand and trustworthy guide. Deb stays in touch with editors and works well with us through the editing process. She's a pleasure to work with.

"Deborah is the kind of reporter that makes you want to hire her immediately for your staff. Her outgoing, cheerful personality complements her dogged pursuit of a story. She makes sure she touches all the bases, finds all the right sources and comes up with ideas that editors hadn't even thought of. Her business acumen is peerless. You can depend on her to go that extra step, and turn in a bright, enjoyable and intelligent story."
Richard Brust, assistant managing editor, ABA Journal 

"Deb Cohen is a creative and reliable contributor to QSR magazine. She reports on complicated financial issues such as the real estate market and minimum wage legislation with precision and depth, remaining steadfastly unbiased in every article. Her ability to draw on a wealth of experience in business reporting gives Deb's writing a sophisticated and informative feel. To have Deb on your writing staff is an advantage over the competition."
Blair Chancey, editor, QSR magazine 

"We hired Deborah to summarize keynote remarks and several hours worth of panel discussions for two M&A conferences that we hosted less than one week apart. Not only did Deb meet the tight deadlines for each report, she delivered content that was pertinent, concise, well-organized and spot-on in every way. I've never received such a well-written first draft, or gone through fewer revisions with a writer. And throughout, Deb was a pleasure to work with!"
