About me

After years as one of the top tennis writers in the country, Marcia Frost is now devoting most of her time to writing about travel, wine, spirits, celebrities and food.

Travel has always been a lifelong passion and a chance meeting with an former college friend led her into the world of Wine and Spirits Travel. Marcia is looking forward to discovering more locations around the world (and re-discovering places she previously visited).

Marcia Frost was appointed Content Editor of Cocktails and Joints in May, 2012. She still writes regularly for Niche Media (Michigan Avenue,Ocean Drive, Hamptons, Gotham, Los Angeles Confidential, Capitol File, Philadelphia Style and Aspen Peak Magazines); Girls Getaway and Yahoo!. Her articles also appear online at USA Today, Hotels.com, Urban Expressions, Rum Bum, Livestrong and Travel Hoppers. She has also written for Air Tran's Go! Magazine and American Way.
