Jeremy Murphy is a critically acclaimed author whose first book, “F*ck Off, Chloe: Surviving the OMGs and FMLs in Your Media Career” (SkyHorse Publishing) received rave reviews when it was released in 2023. It was called “hilarious” by the New York Post while the Daily News raved, “Media mavens will love “F*ck Off, Chloe: Surviving the OMGs and FMLs in your Media Career.” Radar added “(the book is) filled with witty and humorous prose that will no doubt leave you laughing out loud” while named “F*ck Off, Chloe” a must read. The book is currently being developed into a TV series.
Murphy is currently writing “Star, Skies & Scotch: If You Remember It, You Weren’t There,” (Post Hill Press), which will be released in 2024. Co-written with Sophia Paulmier, the dishy-witty confessional chronicles his decade of flying the world as editor of a major glossy magazine, and his interactions with celebrities.
Murphy is also a screen writer, and is developing the scripted TV series “House of Medici” with producers James Brolin and Scott Hart about secrets and scandals from the Medici era that come back to haunt a family in the 1980s London. Actor Andrew Cooper is attached to star. The project is being packaged by the Gersh talent agency.
In 2014, Murphy collaborated with celebrated violinist Charlie Siem, who wrote his first composition, “Canopy,” for CBS Television’s Watch magazine, which Murphy had created and edited. He used Siem’s music as a theme song for the magazine’s digital platforms, marketing efforts and sales campaigns, which was hailed by The New York Times as a new model in media: the first print publication to create an original “soundtrack” to transform magazine into a brand.
Murphy also appeared in a documentary for the Pop network that went behind the scenes of the photo shoots Murphy had commissioned. In 2017, he was featured in Channel 4 UK’s documentary “A Very British Hotel,” which gave viewers a behind-the-scenes peek at the operations of the Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park London. Murphy, a “fan” of the brand and the London hotel, appeared in all four episodes, which were syndicated around the world.
Before founding 360bespoke, Murphy gained industry recognition at CBS where he created and edited its glossy magazine Watch, which redefined the perception of custom publishing. As its editor-in-chief, he built a respected masthead that featured top editorial talents like world-famous photographers Patrick Demarchelier, Ellen von Unwerth, Art Streiber and Ruven Afanodor.
