Early life and education

Katherine Rosman was born in Detroit, Michigan to Bob Rosman and the late Suzanne "Suzy" Rosman (later Rosin) née Goldberg. Her maternal grandfather, Leo Goldberg, was a renowned scientist. She graduated from the University of Michigan College of Literature, Science, and the Arts in 1994 with a Bachelor of Arts degree. She has three sisters, all of whom grew up in the Oakland, Michigan area. Her mother, Suzy Rosin (1944–2005), was the basis of her 2008 book.

She is of Polish Jewish descent, maternally. Paternally, she is of Russian-Jewish descent. Her paternal grandfather, Carl Rosman (1914–2005), arrived at Ellis Island on August 4, 1922, on the S.S. Berengaria with his parents Emanuel and Rose and his sisters Irma and Berta from Transylvania. On other sides of the family, she is of Sephardic descent from Spain, Italy, and other Southeastern European countries; from Purcăreni, and other Ashkenazi and Sephardic regions.

Career

Rosman moved to New York City and became an assistant to Elaina Richardson at Elle magazine. In 2004, she was hired as a staff reporter by The Wall Street Journal. In 2014, she joined the staff of The New York Times. She is the author of the memoir, If You Knew Suzy, published by HarperCollins in 2010.[3][4][5][6][7] Rosman was a finalist in the feature category for the Gerald Loeb Awards for her story, "The Itsy-Bitsy, Teenie-Weenie, Very Litigious Bikini".[8][9] She has been written about by the Harvard Business Review[10] based on her "Survival Guide to Journalism in the Social Media Age". In February 2019, a story by Rosman[11] caused an NYT reporter and photographer to be disinvited from the Vanity Fair Oscar party. Dylan Byers, a senior media reporter at NBC and MSNBC tweeted "I have decided not to attend this year's Vanity Fair Oscars party in light of their decision to ban the [New York Times] on account of their very legitimate reporting. The decision to ban the Times because of critical reporting is incongruous with journalistic values [Vanity Fair] claims to uphold."[12] A New York Times reporter, Edmund Lee, also tweeted of the event, "After great reporting by [Katie Rosman] [and] [Brooks Barnes NYT] on [Vanity Fair] Oscars party, Conde Nast saw fit to ban Times reporters from covering the event. This, from a publication that touts journalism."[13] Others protested the event as well. She also starred in a 2019 documentary called Secrets of Sugar Baby Dating,[14] directed by Joyce Trozzo in relation to a story she wrote an article called "A 'Sugar Date' Gone Sour"[15] on October 15, 2018, then "The 'Sugar Dater'"[16] on October 19, 2018, followed by more. She reported a story in early 2020 on Jay-Z and Roc Nation in Los Angeles.[17] She also attended their Grammy brunch, hosted by Jay-Z and his wife, Beyonce, a singer-songwriter, record producer, dancer and actress. In late February 2020, she reported a story on the controversial termination of the contract of E. Jean Carroll from Elle magazine.[18] In mid-March 2020, Rosman traveled to Seattle, Washington to report a story on panic and anxiety of the citizens of the city due to a massive outbreak of the novel Wuhan coronavirus, otherwise known as COVID-19.[19]

Personal life

Rosman resides in New York City with her husband, Joe Ehrlich, and two children. Her husband is of Austrian and Romanian Jewish descent as well as of German descent, Irish descent, Scottish descent, Swiss descent, Norwegian descent, and English descent. He is descended from William Penn, founder of Pennsylvania, and Hannah Callowhill, Clan Stuart, John Knox, the Schuyler family, the Hamilton family Clan Hamilton, Clan Cunningham, Clan Kennedy, and Mary, Queen of Scots. She previously lived in Tuxedo Park, New York. Rosman and her husband do yoga in which she shares on her Instagram story often. As of late March 2020, Rosman had about 4,500 Instagram followers and 23,700 followers on Twitter. In August of 2020, she was verified on Instagram,[20] which was her last social media in which she wasn't verified--she is verified on both FaceBook and Twitter.
