About Liz Plank
What is Airplane Mode? ✈️
Airplane Mode is a newsletter from Liz Plank, a writer invested in your mental health rather than your clicks.
I’ve won a few awards, became an international bestselling author and I’m directing my first film about disability rights, but nothing beats getting to write this newsletter and share this community with you.
Previously, I was the executive producer and host of a few critically-acclaimed digital series at Mic, Vox Media and NBC News. I made videos about identity through the lens of national politics and also got to play go fish with Kristen Gillibrand, taught Senator Murphy how to face swap, convinced Cory Booker and Ilhan Omar to make their first Tik Toks and talked about how to fix America with Justin Trudeau. I’ve gone deep with icons like Olivia Wilde, Riz Ahmed, Esther Perel, Lena Waithe, Rainn Wilson, Matthew McConaughey and Shawn Mendes and called a “travel icon” by TIME Magazine for getting an entire plane to boogie.
