Jeremy Murphy
About The Author
Jeremy Murphy is an author whose first book, F*ck Off, Chloe: Surviving the OMGs and FMLs in Your Media Career, took the publishing world by surprise with its snarky and sarcastic take on the PR, journalism, woke culture, and Gen Z’ers ruining everything. The book was called “hilarious” by the New York Post while the Daily News raved, “Media mavens will love F*ck Off, Chloe: Surviving the OMGs and FMLs in your Media Career.” Radar added “(the book is) filled with witty and humorous prose that will no doubt leave you laughing out loud.” Grazia magazine hailed it as a must read while WABC Radio Frank Morano called it the “best book I've ever read.”
In addition to being an author, Murphy is a screen writer (his first TV project, House of Medici, is being developed into a series by James Brolin and Scott Hart), media executive (he served as a company spokesman and Vice President at CBS), speech writer, and the founder of 360bespoke, a boutique PR firm in New York City. He started his career as a newspaper reporter with Knight Ridder, and went on to cover local television for Mediaweek magazine.
Murphy garnered industry recognition when he created the CBS glossy magazine Watch!, which was envisioned as a “Vanity Fair for TV viewers.” Under his leadership, the magazine became a newsstand staple. As editor in chief, he recruited top talents like photographers Patrick Demarchelier, Ellen von Unwerth, Art Streiber and Ruven Afanodor, as well as fashion authority Kate Betts (former editor of Harper’s Bazaar and Time Design & Style); Time magazine columnist Joel Stein; New York Times contributors Ben Widdicombe, Frank DeCaro and Stuart Elliot; veteran travel editor Peter Greenberg, and Vanity Fair’s Chris Rovzar.
In 2017, Murphy was featured in Channel 4 UK’s documentary A Very British Hotel, which gave viewers a behind-the-scenes peek at the operations of the Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park London. Murphy, a “fan” of the brand and the London hotel, appeared in all four episodes, which were syndicated around the world.
