Academy Spokespeople

The Academy's volunteer media spokespeople — registered dietitian nutritionists representing the 25 largest media markets as well as specialty nutrition areas — are the news media's best resource for expert commentary, story ideas and background on the full range of food and nutrition topics. Spokespeople are skilled at speaking with the media and excel in translating nutrition science into information consumers can easily understand. Contact us to speak with an Academy spokesperson.

Resources for Journalists

The Academy's Media Guide is a comprehensive tool for media to use in developing their stories on food and nutrition. The guide includes biographies, photos and expertise areas of the Academy's spokespeople along with a list of the Academy's healthful eating messages and consumer publications.
