Dory Jackson is a Digital Journalist. She considers herself to be a true pop culture snob with a focus on all things relating to television and film news. Although much of her writing is entertainment-based, she has enjoyed covering news within the political and business world as well. Her goal is to transition into on-camera hosting.

​

She earned her undergraduate degree from Randolph-Macon College in May 2016. Her focus was in Communications Studies and Journalism. She participated in the R-MC Cheer & Dance Team, Stinger Radio Station, and The Yellow Jacket Newspaper. 

 

Her sophomore year of college is when she came to the realization that she was meant to pursue a career in entertainment journalism after attending Hot 99.5s Jingle Ball — an event where she had her first celebrity interviews with Fifth Harmony and Austin Mahone.

​

She's worked with news brands such as Celebuzz, Press Pass LA, MTV, Us Weekly and International Business Times. Through Newsweek, she's interviewed dozens of A-List stars, including the following: Zooey Deschanel, Michael B. Jordan, Kristen Bell, Alec Baldwin, Viola Davis, and Laverne Cox. She also previously co-hosted the "Idol Nation" podcast.

​

Dory currently works in New York City as an Associate Editor on PEOPLE's TV News team. Through this role, she's continued to interview top-tier stars and has even made major on-camera TV appearances on programs like Good Morning America.
