Contributing Writer

As a child, Diane hoped to grow up to be either Mary Richards or cruise director of the Pacific Princess. Instead, her many years watching television shows like The Mary Tyler Moore Show and Love Boat led her to her current career, where she spends time writing about programs that feature people with British accents solving crime and ones that went off the air more than 40 years ago. Diane, whose work has appeared in The Guardian, Time Out New York and Billboard, also covers the stage for outlets such as TheaterMania.com and The Telegraph. She is the assistant managing editor of TV Guide Magazine.
