Meet the Pittsburgh Arts & Lectures Team: Jordan S Meet the Pittsburgh Arts & Lectures Team: Jordan Snowden, Marketing Specialist

Jordan Snowden (@jord_reads_books) joined the Pittsburgh Arts & Lectures team in May 2025 and hit the ground running with a keen eye for design and a playful, thoughtful approach to social media and marketing. If you've browsed our website, received one of our mailers, or admired a program poster around town, you've already seen Jordan's work—and she's just getting started. 

📝 Previous life: Staff writer & music editor at Pittsburgh City Paper, online editor at TABLE Magazine, book marketer at Astra Publishing House, and freelance writer. She's also the monthly crime & mystery columnist for The Seattle Times.

📚 What drew her to PA&L: A lifelong love of books and the communities they create. PA&L felt like a natural place to help connect readers with stories—and each other.

✨ Goals in her role: Make literary events feel welcoming, exciting, and accessible, and help more people discover new authors and Pittsburgh's vibrant literary community.

🎮 Favorite pastimes: Reading (always), cozy gaming, hula hooping, crafting, photography, thrifting, baking, traveling, spending time with her kids, and soaking up the sun whenever possible.

🏝️ Desert island picks: She refuses to answer. Choosing only three books is, in her words, "an act of violence."

📖 Currently reading: Palaver by Bryan Washington (physical book), Dodge City by Patrick DeWitt (audiobook), Building 903 by Lois Lowry (audiobook)
