Courtney Pulitzer Creations LLC is an independent publishing, media, merchandise, and creative company founded by writer, publisher, communications professional, and community builder Courtney Pulitzer.
The company began in 1998 at the center of New York’s emerging Internet and new-media community. Through projects including Courtney Pulitzer’s Cyber Scene, Cocktails with Courtney, CyberScene TV, the Morning Circle, Venture Circle, and the Stardust Circle, Courtney Pulitzer Creations documented the personalities, companies, events, ideas, and culture shaping the early digital economy.
Its influential Courtney Pulitzer’s Cyber Scene newsletter reached more than 50,000 Internet and new-media professionals around the world. Its networking events and discussion series brought together entrepreneurs, creatives, executives, investors, analysts, journalists, and technologists in environments designed to encourage genuine conversation and meaningful professional relationships.
Today, Courtney Pulitzer Creations has evolved into a broader creative enterprise encompassing independent publishing, original storytelling, branded merchandise, digital content, design collaborations, community engagement, and the development of new creative properties.
Across each of these areas, the company remains guided by the same principles that shaped its earliest projects: curiosity, creativity, individuality, useful information, and authentic human connection.
The company’s work crosses publishing, media, events, design, apparel, accessories, community building, and cultural documentation. What connects these projects is not a single format, but a consistent purpose: to create ideas and objects that help people express who they are, remember where they came from, discover something useful, and connect with one another.
Courtney Pulitzer Creations continues to honor its early Internet and new-media history while building an independent creative company for the present—one story, conversation, design, and collection at a time.
Independent Publishing and Storytelling
Courtney Pulitzer Creations publishes original books and develops creative projects intended to inform, engage, support, and connect readers.
Its first children’s title is Saying Bye-Bye to Mama’s Milk: A Gentle Weaning Story, written by Courtney Pulitzer and illustrated by Charlene Atkinson. Created for toddlers and their caregivers, the picture book offers a gentle and emotionally supportive approach to weaning while affirming that love, reassurance, comfort, and connection continue as families move through change.
Published under the Courtney Pulitzer Creations imprint, the book represents the company’s expansion into thoughtfully produced stories for children and families. Additional books, collaborations, and creative publishing projects are planned as the imprint continues to grow.
Cocktails with Courtney
In September 1998 these began as a series of invitation-only networking events created to bring together leading personalities from the early Internet and new-media community.
The events attracted entrepreneurs, executives, creatives, technologists, investors, analysts, journalists, and community builders. Rather than recreating the loud, promotional atmosphere of many dot-com-era events, Cocktails with Courtney emphasized conversation, introductions, enduring relationships, and a touch of old-world glamour.
The Courtney Pulitzer Creations Shop
The Courtney Pulitzer Creations online shop brings together the Cocktails with Courtney, Womyn, and Divers collections through apparel, accessories, drinkware, stationery, home goods, and other lifestyle merchandise.
Each collection carries its own history and personality while reflecting the company’s broader interest in storytelling, identity, culture, nostalgia, humor, and human connection.

Cocktails with Courtney Merchandise Collection
The Cocktails with Courtney merchandise collection revives that history through vintage-inspired T-shirts, drinkware, notebooks, accessories, footwear, and lifestyle products. Nostalgic, playful, and rooted in community, the collection is built around conversation, connection, and a little sparkle.
Designs such as Classic Nights, After Hours, Old School, and Notes & Nightcaps preserve the visual language and social spirit of the original events while introducing Cocktails with Courtney to a new generation of entrepreneurs, creatives, connectors, and cultural observers.
Women | Womyn
Womyn is an original identity and lifestyle brand created by Courtney Pulitzer in New York City in 1990 while she was studying at NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts.
Influenced by her liberal arts education, women’s studies courses, women writers, and memorable women characters in literature, Courtney developed the design around the relationship between the traditional spelling of “women” and the emerging alternative spelling “womyn.”
The brand recognizes both the important roles women have traditionally held and the many ways women have challenged, expanded, rejected, or redefined those roles. It celebrates the complexity and diversity of women who lead, create, question, build, nurture, rebel, and become on their own terms.
Womyn is a brand of self-definition—independent, strong, and whole—created for those who do not require roles, labels, or permission to define who they are.
The collection includes T-shirts, leisurewear, bags, caps, notebooks, mugs, candles, yoga mats, footwear, home goods, and accessories. Product concepts such as Unbound, Lead Here, Find Your Ground, Off-Duty Leader, Gather Strong, Light the Room, and Everyday Ground transform the Womyn identity into wearable and functional expressions of independence and self-possession.
Divers
The Courtney Pulitzer Creations merchandise shop also includes Divers—French for “varied,” “diverse,” or “many kinds.”
The collection provides a home for ideas that do not fit neatly into a single category and do not need to. It includes one-off designs, cultural references, inside jokes, throwbacks, observations, and unconventional creative experiments.
Its products are intended to feel playful, unexpected, wearable, and just unusual enough to make the right person say, “Exactly.”
Super16 Design Collaborations and Collections
The Super16 shop features apparel, accessories, lifestyle products, and location-inspired collections that combine graphic design, cultural references, personal history, music, streetwear, and a strong sense of place.

The signature Super16 collection is rooted in visual storytelling and the space where reality, imagination, memory, and moving images intersect.
Built around phrases such as “Truth from Fiction” and “I Can’t Tell Truth from Fiction,” the collection reflects the ambiguity and creative tension between what is documented, what is remembered, and what is constructed.
Its products include graphic T-shirts, sweatshirts, hats, bags, notebooks, water bottles, workout gear, and other accessories. The collection’s cinematic sensibility and bold graphic treatment make Super16 both a design identity and a statement about the images, narratives, and perceptions that shape everyday life.
520 Streetwear
520 Streetwear is inspired by Tucson, Arizona—its desert heat, downtown streets, murals, neighborhoods, artists, skaters, musicians, night owls, and unapologetically independent personality.
The 520 area code becomes a badge of local identity rather than simply a number. The collection is born in the desert and designed to be worn everywhere, with clothing shaped by heat, grit, creativity, and the raw beauty of the Southwest.
Recurring messages include “Heat Rises. So Do We,” “Where Asphalt Meets Desert Heat,” “Hotter Than the Pavement,” and “The Heat You Wear.”
The line includes T-shirts, sweatshirts, cropped tops, phone cases, stickers, and related streetwear products designed to carry the soul and attitude of Tucson beyond the city itself.
Weirdos & Tacos
Weirdos & Tacos is a distinctive collection within 520 Streetwear inspired by Tucson’s pride in being unconventional.
It captures the atmosphere of downtown Tucson after dark: artists, musicians, skaters, creators, taco seekers, independent thinkers, and people who are entirely comfortable not fitting into a conventional mold.
Playful, local, and deliberately strange, Weirdos & Tacos presents Tucson as a place where individuality is not merely tolerated—it is part of the city’s identity.
The designs combine desert attitude, local humor, and community pride in merchandise made for people who stay strange, eat tacos, and represent the 520.
1517 Le Havre Collection
The 1517 Collection also draws upon Le Havre, referencing the year the French port city was founded.
Through apparel and lifestyle products, the collection transforms a historic date into a contemporary design signature. T-shirts, sweatshirts, jackets, and mugs combine a clean graphic identity with a connection to the city’s history, waterfront culture, and enduring character.
Together, the 1517 and 76600 collections offer two complementary ways of representing Le Havre: one through its founding year and the other through its modern postal identity.
76600 Collection
The 76600 Collection takes its name from the postal code associated with Le Havre, France.
Using the postal code as a bold geographic emblem, the collection turns local identity into a modern graphic mark. T-shirts, sweatshirts, joggers, mugs, backpacks, pet accessories, and other products allow people to represent a place through the concise visual language of numbers and typography.
The collection reflects the connection between geography, memory, belonging, and personal identity—particularly the way a postal code can immediately evoke a neighborhood, hometown, period of life, or shared cultural experience.
JE Lyrics Collection
The JE Lyrics Collection turns fragments of original language and lyrical expression into wearable graphic statements.
Phrases such as “Won’t Be a Monkey,” “Frankenstein,” “Birds Are Funny,” “So Close,” “The Fun,” and “I Don’t Know My Future After This Weekend” are presented on T-shirts, sweatshirts, stickers, and related merchandise.
Some phrases feel poetic, some humorous, some enigmatic, and others intentionally unresolved. Together, they reflect the way a single lyric or sentence can carry a memory, attitude, private meaning, or emotional charge that changes depending upon the person wearing it.
A Creative Company Built Around Connection
Whether publishing a children’s book, reviving the history of an influential networking community, reintroducing a decades-old identity design, creating location-based streetwear, or collaborating on new merchandise collections, Courtney Pulitzer Creations develops projects that carry a story.
The company’s work crosses publishing, media, events, design, apparel, accessories, community building, and cultural documentation. What connects these projects is not a single format, but a consistent purpose: to create ideas and objects that help people express who they are, remember where they came from, discover something useful, and connect with one another.
Courtney Pulitzer Creations continues to honor its early Internet and new-media history while building an independent creative company for the present—one story, conversation, design, and collection at a time.
