Danielle Weisberg And Carly Zakin
Both Danielle and Carly Zakin are American citizens, but perhaps by coincidence, or maybe by fate, they met in Rome, Italy. The two women hit it off and they started sharing their love of the news and discussing their frustrations over the ambivalence of so many women who are within their age range and social circles. Both found that they had a lot in common including a passion for the news, and each had some ideas on how to create a new publication that could possibly reach those who didn’t find the news to be interesting.
In 2012, the two launched the theSkimm from their couch. TheSkimm is a membership company that makes it easier to live smarter. They started with the Daily Skimm, the fastest-growing email newsletter on the market with a community of approximately 7 million dailySkimm’rs.
