“In this age of communication through graphics, we can’t forget the importance of words for conveying messages.”

Mindy Hermann, Senior Writer

Mindy Hermann became a writer serendipitously. A registered dietitian, Mindy first developed writing skills as a spokesperson for the New York State Dietetic Association, which she parlayed into magazine and public relations writing. She joined Co-Communications to help its clients deliver their messages in a clear and effective way.

In Mindy’s first career, she worked as a nutrition specialist at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center. She dabbled as a freelance writer on her days off, writing for both magazines and public relations firms. With the birth of her twin sons in 1990, Mindy left her hospital job and became a full-time writer. She has by-lined over 300 articles for magazines and websites and has co-authored several award-winning books, in addition to ghost-writing articles and books.

Mindy was active in the Westchester Association of Women Business Owner, where she was a board member for several years. She currently serves as chair of communications for Bet Torah in Mount Kisco and has coordinated public relations for numerous community service organizations. Mindy is the founder and Executive Director of the Westchester Klezmer Program, Inc., a non-profit dedicated to building community through Jewish dance music.

Mindy earned a B.S. in Public Health, with a concentration in dietetics, from University of California, Los Angeles and a Master’s in Business Administration in Marketing from New York University.
