Polly Conway

As Common Sense Media‘s Websites Editor, Polly is responsible for discovering the latest and greatest in online kids’ media. She has a master’s degree in Creative Writing from California College of the Arts and has written extensively about the craft and DIY movement for sites like ReadyMade and Etsy. A pop culture fiend and kid at heart, she’s nuts about lowbrow humor (faves include Dumb and Dumber!) and classic screwball comedies like It Happened One Night. As an educator (she currently teaches writing to kids in her adopted hometown of Oakland, CA), Polly loves watching kids discover their creative potential. She’s also an enthusiastic advocate for girls and women in media and beyond. Email Polly at pconway@commonsense.org or find her on Twitter.
