Bianca Bosker is an award-winning journalist and author known for her immersive investigative approach to cultural topics. Before writing Get the Picture, she gained recognition for her 2017 book Cork Dork, in which she documented her journey from wine novice to certified sommelier through total immersion in the wine industry. This earlier work established her signature methodology of embedding herself in specialized communities to understand them from the inside out.

Before her career as an author, Bosker served as the founding Executive Tech Editor of The Huffington Post, where she developed expertise in technology journalism. She received her bachelor’s degree in history from Princeton University and graduated with highest honors. Her academic background in historical research and analysis informs her approach to investigating the art world’s complex historical and social dynamics in Get the Picture.

Bosker’s journalistic work has appeared in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Atlantic, and The New Yorker, among other publications. She has earned several notable accolades, including the James Beard Foundation Award for journalism. Her writing often explores how specialized knowledge and expertise shape human perception and experience, a theme that carries through from Cork Dork to Get the Picture.
