The New York Travel Writers Association is a non-profit, professional organization comprised of individuals who earn a living as travel writers, editors, and broadcasters. It brings journalists together in an informal setting for fellowship and the exchange of information about issues that affect our profession.

To that end, NYTW holds regular meetings, many of which are social events that introduce members to new venues in the New York area and afford opportunities to meet other travel industry professionals in order to learn more about a travel company, destination, or attraction. 

Membership is on an invitation-only basis and is capped at 80 Active Members. Prospective members must be individuals who earn a living as journalists for consumer or trade publications, books, broadcast media, or online media.

All members of NYTW are permitted to join other professional organizations.

Barbara Peterson, President
Deborah Gaines, Vice President
Geri Bain, Secretary
Roger Cox, Treasurer
