Zoe Williams

Zoe Williams

Zoe Williams (born 1973) is a British columnist and journalist, who read Modern History at Lincoln College, Oxford.

Williams writes regularly for "The Guardian" and the "New Statesman", and also writes political commentary, interviews and reviews. Her work has also appeared in other publications, including "The Spectator", "NOW Magazine", the London Cycling Campaign's magazine "London Cyclist" and the London Evening Standard where she wrote columns on a variety of subjects, and a diary about being a single girl in London.

Williams' political views are self-described as left-wing and feminist: she frequently covers feminist issues in her columns. She is also a supporter of humanism.

In May, 2008, she was quoted in a Guardian article by Siobhain Butterworth (regarding Williams' earlier piece about Boris Johnson) as admitting: "I'm not a reporter. I write comment. I tell people what to do all the time. I don't expect them to take me seriously."
