Heather Greene

I’m a freelance editor, writer, and journalist in Atlanta, Georgia. I am also currently an acquisitions consultant with Llewellyn Worldwide, Ltd - a dream job really.

My first book Bell, Book, and Camera: A Critical History of Witches in American Film and Television was released in Spring 2018. I have since revised and updated the book for a Fall 2021 release with the new spiffy title Lights, Camera, Witchcraft: A Critical History of Witches in American Film and Television.

My professional career began in advertising, public relations, and film production in New York City, or as I, being from New Jersey, call it The City. I also worked in Atlanta and Paris. Then, in 2001, I left that corporate mess all behind and dedicated my time to family (aka crying babies) and writing.

I am the former managing editor of the news journal, The Wild Hunt. My work has been published at Religion News Service, Religion Unpluggled, The Washington Post, Patheos.com, Circle Magazine, and the Parliament of the World Religions online magazine. I have also written for Turner Classic Movies, Saddleback SEO, Sybex Publications, and Lady Liberty League to name a few. I’m honored to say that my writing has been translated into German, French, Spanish, Polish, Italian, and Thai.

You may have already noticed that my interests are strongly focused on the mystical crossroads of pop culture, history, politics, religion, art, film, and the occult. It is quite muddy there, but colorful and loud.

More specifically, I’ve been studying, writing about, and researching Witchcraft, Paganism, alternative religions, and other occult topics for over thirty years, and nobody can make me stop.

I have a B.A. in Film Studies and French from the Wesleyan University in Connecticut (No, not Wellesley) and an M.A. in Film Studies from Emory University. I also studied film and theater at Cornell University and the University of Paris.

I am a proud member of Circle Sanctuary, Covenant of the Goddess, Religion Newswriters Association, and my family….most of the time.
