Trisha Posner

Trisha Posner is a British non-fiction writer. She is the author of This is Not Your Mother's Menopause: One Woman's Natural Journey Through Change, No Hormones, No Fear and The pharmacist of Auschwitz. She wrote under her own name, as well as Patricia Posner.

Posner has worked on 12 investigative books of nonfiction with her husband, author Gerald Posner. According to The St. Petersburg Times she "works with him on his books and joins him in his interviews, but refuses co-author credit." The Trentonian said the couple "met on a blind date in 1980 and married four years later;" she is "the researcher, co-reporter and muse for all his books."

She has also written articles and profiles for national magazines including Salon, Huffington Post, and The Daily Beast. From 2005 to 2007 she was a columnist for Miami's Ocean Drive magazine. One column, "Cultural Chatter" covered topics including local preservation battles and news profiles. The second, "Health Watch" was about developments in health.

In 2007 she was at the center of a controversy over whether or not a journalist could express an opinion opposed to that of her publisher on a public issue. According to the New York Post she was "fired for civic activism." Her 2007 Wikinews interview sets forth the limits and risks for a journalist when it comes to disagreeing publicly with publishers. Gerald Posner wrote about the controversy in the Huffington Post.

Trisha has also been a commentator on television, NBC, MSNBC and FOX, regarding her journalism.
