Rena Silverman (born September 16,1985) is a freelance poet, journalist, ghost writer, and most recently, blogger.

A native of New York City, Rena attended LaGuardia H.S. for Music and Art and the Performing Arts where she studied Method Acting and dance. But she’s always had a pen in her hand.

At the onset of the recent/current War in Iraq, Rena interned for ABC News. She was later thanked by John Stossel in his book, “Give Me a Break: How I Exposed Hucksters, Cheats, and Scam Artists and Became the Scourge of the Liberal Media…”

In 2005, Rena began working as a proofreader for Lincoln Center Institute for the Arts in Education, an organization that brings dance, music, theater, film, visual arts, and architecture into classrooms in the New York City area, across the nation, and around the world. It was here that Rena realized that she wanted to write.

Since Lincoln Center, Rena has many jobs from selling art in Santa Fe to tying the lose ends of a political campaign to production work at MSNBC.

In 2007, she was featured in Marie Claire magazine’s “I Can’t Get Through July Without My…”. (cashews, The Big Lebowski, etc).

Throughout all this, Rena has been writing nonstop. She is in the process of publishing various things in various places and hopes to get the ball rolling pretty soon.

Rena is the daughter of Martha Caplin, a concert violinist and Stanley Silverman, a renowned composer. She is also NBC Co-Chairman Ben Silverman’s younger sister.

She lives in New York City with her typewriter.
