A winner of the National Magazine Award for feature writing, she has published magazine pieces that later appeared in anthologies including The Best American Magazine Writing and The Best American Crime Writing.

She has been a fellow of The MacDowell Colony and, at Harvard, the Nieman Foundation for Journalism. At The New Yorker, Williams has covered suburban politics in Detroit, capital punishment in Alabama, paleoanthropology in South Africa, and the misappropriation of cultural palimony from the Tlingit peoples of Alaska.
