Biography


Warn graduated from Annie Wright School in Tacoma in 1992. She then attended Wellesley College in 1996 with a degree in women's studies, and received a master's degree in theological studies from Harvard University in 1998.[1] She spent eight years in online marketing[2] before selling her gay and lesbian entertainment websites AfterEllen.com and AfterElton.com to Logo in 2006.[3] Warn stepped down as the Editor in Chief of AfterEllen.com, with Karman Kregloe stepping into the role in 2009.[4] Warn is currently the Vice President of Growth at Seattle-based immigration startup Boundless Immigration.[5]

Warn's extensive written work on lesbian and bisexual women in entertainment has been included or cited in numerous magazines, including Velvetpark, Curve[6] and Lesbian News; in newspapers like USA Today,[7] Los Angeles Times, and Emmy Magazine; and in books like BITCHfest: Ten Years of Cultural Criticism from the Pages of Bitch Magazine, Queer Popular Culture: Literature, Media, Film, and Television, Bisexual Women: Friendship & Social Organization, and News and Sexuality: Media Portraits of Diversity.[8] Warn also wrote the introduction to the Reading the 'L' Word, a collection of essays by academics and journalists about the Showtime drama The L Word.[9]

In November 2006, Warn was honored as one of the year's "10 Amazing Gay Women in Showbiz" by non-profit organization Power Up.[10] In December 2006, she appeared on a panel with other notable LGBT actors and activists on Logo's Queer Year 2006 TV special.[11] She was one of four co-hosts on the first season of the online lesbian talk show She Said What?[12]

Warn currently co-hosts the entertainment news video blogs She Made Me Watch This[13] and Who Thought THAT Was A Good Idea? with her partner Lori Grant, which runs weekly on AfterEllen.com.[14][15]
