Sally Farhat Kassab is the editor of Seattle Bride magazine. She is also a journalist who writes for national magazines such as Parents, Natural Health and Every Day with Rachael Ray. She has covered everything from the environment to beauty. She is the author of a book, Northwest Best Places, and a university teacher. In her 10-year career, she has written hundreds of articles. While on staff at the Detroit Free Press, Sally got an exclusive interview with the only witness of the accidental murder of a shoplifter in a Kroger grocery store, an off-duty police officer. That story and the continuing coverage was the top story in the city for weeks. She also broke the story about how the local coroner's office was making illegal money soliciting families for organ donations, and wrote an investigative report. She also wrote a piece in the aftermath of a teenager's death from anorexia -- and learned that the reasons for the disease were much deeper than anyone imagined.

Sally's stories have provoked people to action -- a Seattle Times piece she wrote on Hmong farmers who lost their crops in a hailstorm prompted a slew of donations to the family who normally sold their flowers at the city's famed Pike Place Market. Another article, about how a city sold one of its best buildings to a poor Dot-com developer and was in deep trouble trying to get it back, caused voters to demand an explanation.

She reported and wrote a piece on the nation's rise in Latino drop out rates, and went undercover into a Boston school to learn the true causes and get beyond statistics.

Sally has been honored by speaking at the University of Washington and the Asian American Journalists Association events. She recently led a panel at the UNITY convention in Chicago. The Freedom Forum honored her as a Chips Quinn Scholar and the Seafair Scholarship Organization awarded her the Academic Award.

Other publications she contributes to include Cooking Light, MSN.com, Latina, American Baby, In Style, Diversion and Glamour.
