Beth Macy is a Virginia-based journalist who writes about outsiders and underdogs. She is the New York Times best-selling author of four books, including Factory Man and Dopesick, which won the L.A. Times Book Prize for Science and Technology, and was described as a "masterwork of narrative nonfiction" by The New York Times.

Dopesick was made into a Peabody- and Emmy Award-winning Hulu series; Macy was an executive producer and cowriter on the show. Her 2022 book, Raising Lazarus: Hope, Justice, and the Future of America's Overdose Crisis, was a follow-up to Dopesick and explored on-the-ground solutions to the nation's drug epidemic.
