ABOUT ME

I'm an experienced—and fast—op ed writer, who can in most cases offer a same-day turnaround on op eds.  I am experienced writing for business clients, political candidates and committees, environmental and advocacy groups. I'll work with you to capture your voice and your point of view, to ensure the op-ed is authentic and targeted to deliver your message.

WHAT MY CLIENTS SAY ABOUT ME

HE DOESN'T JUST WRITE WELL, HE WRITES FOR IMPACT

William Klein has a rare ability: he is gifted at crafting public arguments, fast and fluent, to move public policy. He has a real gift. He doesn't just write well, he writes for impact. He understands how nonprofit and policy advocacy works—the need to use humor, tap emotions and harness factual arguments, all on a deadline. It helps that he cares passionately about social change. William Klein has added tremendous value to the nonprofit groups I've led and the political campaigns on which I've worked. Long before I was chief speechwriter for a president, I learned the essence of political communication from him.

WILLIAM KLEIN
IS A TRUE COLLABORATOR

William Klein is a true collaborator. He cares about NOW’s mission, understands our issues, and knows how to do the messaging we need to stay effective. Best of all, he succeeds in capturing my authentic voice. I know I can always trust him to find the right words.

GENIUS OR
MIRACLE WORKER?

Genius or Miracle Worker?
While I'm not not sure which describes actually describes William the best (I suspect it's a little of both), I do know that he has demonstrated an amazing ability to take information that I provide him (which is often disjointed and filled with jargon) and produce op eds that are encompassing and compelling. On issues ranging from global viruses to funding for children's hospitals, I've had the pleasure of working with William on multiple occasions, and he has definitely earned his position as my go to guy.

YOUR CAUSE CAN EARN THE ATTENTION IT DESERVES

It's called earned media for a reason, you have to earn it.But sometimes it’s just too hard for insiders to step outside the jargon, the statistics, the familiar talking points long enough to create a piece of writing that a newspaper editor will actually want to publish for free. That’s where William comes in. He brings a fresh point of view. He knows how to shake things up enough to help you tell your own story in your own voice, the way it should have been all along, so your cause can earn the attention it deserves.”
