Notable former editors of ''Interpellator'' include author Ashley Hay, science writer Bob Beale, Triple J newsreader Michael Turtle, and marketing writer with '' The Australian'', Lara Sinclair.

The current editors and director of Interp are: *Editors-in-Chief: Tahlia Sarv and Kate Neilson *Creative Director: Caitlin Christensen
