I have been a writer and creator in many guises—as a staff reporter at the East Hampton (N.Y.) Star and the Staten Island Advance; as a freelance writer published in numerous outlets, including The New York Times; and as director of communications at the Center for Court Innovation, overseeing the production of videos, podcasts, and written reports.
As co-host of New Books in Science Fiction, a podcast on the New Books Network, I regularly interview authors—from debut to bestselling writers—about their recent works. Highlights from episodes appear regularly on LitHub. I am represented by Sara Megibow at KT Literary.

Praise for the New Books in Science Fiction
This is honestly one of the best interviews I’ve ever done. Nothing to do with me; Rob asked some genuinely insightful questions and made me look at my own work in new ways.
—Jackson Ford (aka Rob Boffard), author of THE FROST FILES series
It’s such a pleasure to talk about UNKINDNESS with someone who’d thought so deeply about the world of the book.
—Rivers Solomon, author of AN UNKINDNESS OF GHOSTS
The podcast New Books In Science Fiction, hosted by Rob Wolf, is … one of the podcasts that consistently guide listeners to find deeper understanding and appreciation of genre works. Wolf sits down with an author who has a new novel … and has an in-depth one-on-one chat with them about the book and their influences, about their career, and about the intellectual effort that went into the book. Often, the result is revelatory. An expert interviewer, Wolf approaches each author with an earnest enthusiasm that is frankly endearing. He asks thoughtful, succinct questions that drive at the heart of the matter, and gives his guests the time to respond fully and completely.
