Lasky’s articles, essays and book reviews have appeared in numerous publications, including the New York Times, The American Scholar, and Forward. Lasky’s focus has been on the arts.

The recipient of a National Arts Journalism Program fellowship, she spent 1995-96 as a visiting scholar at the Medill School of Journalism at Northwestern University. The fellowship culminated in Lasky spending a month in Sarajevo investigating the effect of the Bosnian war on the city’s artistic culture. An essay based on that experience appeared in the Spring, 1997 issue of The American Scholar.

Since 1992, Lasky has been managing editor of Print, a bimonthly graphic arts magazine. During her tenure, the magazine has earned four consecutive National Magazine Award nominations and a National Award for General Excellence in 1994.

She currently lives in New York and is working on a novel.
