Yuan is a contributing editor at New York magazine and Vulture, writing primarily about culture, entertainment, and celebrities, in both long-form features and regular online posts. Her work has appeared in Vogue, Elle, Glamour, Lucky, Marie Claire, Cosmopolitan, the Sunday Telegraph,Bullet, and Man of the World.
