As a journalism and history major at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, Andrea Debbink worked for three years as an editorial intern at American Girl magazine, the very publication she loved as a child. Years later, when the editorial team sought a new lifestyle editor, Andrea applied for the position. That was nearly a decade ago. In that time, Andrea has become a leader in developing meaningful nonfiction content for girls, including crafts, recipes, games, and activities that encourage girls' creative expression.
