On freelance assignments, Cassidy has sipped White Russians with Elvis impersonators for The New York Times, dodged rubber bullets at BLM protests for W, befriended bisexual pirates for GQ, and helped reunite the members of America’s first Black punk for Dazed. Though she writes across disciplines, the stories Cassidy tells are connected by her desire to understand how history, politics and power structures shape every aspect of our (counter)culture, from the selfies we take, to the clothing we wear and the lyrics we sing.

Her full list of editorial clients includes: The New York Times, The New Yorker,  Vogue, GQ, Rolling Stone, The Cut, W, BBC, Dazed and Confused, i-D, PAPER, Resident Advisor, Vice, Highsnobiety, Mixmag, The Face, 032c, Huck, Document Journal, Electronic Beats, INDIE, SLEEK and Directions.
