Shahamat Uddin is a freelance writer largely covering queer and South Asian issues, but also related lifestyle topics and entertainment. His family hails from Sylhet, Bangladesh, but after growing up in Roswell, GA, he now lives in Brooklyn with his cat, Butter. Outside of PS, he also has bylines in Teen Vogue, Vogue, Vogue India, New York Magazine, Them, The Nation, and more. His notable coverage includes the 2023 New York Magazine Pride digital cover story, where Shahamat investigated the rising costs associated with celebrating Pride in New York City and what queer attendees seek from the event.
