Lili Anolik
author and podcast host
We got to know Lili Anolik through her incredible writing voice—in Vanity Fair, Esquire, Air Mail, and books like the unputdownable Hollywood’s Eve about the glamorous, mysterious LA writer Eve Babitz. Then we got to know her through her actual voice on Once Upon a Time…in the Valley, a must-binge real-life noir podcast on the unsolved mysteries about former porn star Traci Lords. “It’s what would happen if Boogie Nights had a threesome with Gone Girl and A Star Is Born,” Anolik says (accurately—we raced through the series as if it were a box of especially addictive chocolates and could not stop telling people about it).
