Naomi Toy

Naomi is the former Associate Editor for WHO and mum to two boys. Her journalism career began 30 years ago on Sydney’s Daily Telegraph where she worked across all rounds, then specialising in police and court reporting, before taking a sharp turn into the world of celebrity and entertainment as one of the first editors of Sydney Confidential. Reporting from red carpets and interviewing movie stars – not to mention attending the royal wedding of Mary Donaldson to Denmark’s Crown Prince Frederik – has been a dream come true. She has worked on the New York Post and Woman’s Day but on WHO, a magazine she’s loved since it first launched in Australia, she feels at home. She’s worked as a film and TV extra (Law and Order: SVU was a highlight) and performed improv on stage with the Upright Citizens Brigade. Writing WHO’s Drink Notes column is a passion project but she’s all about entertainment. Naomi reluctantly accepts there will never be enough time to read all the books or watch all the TV she wants to.
