Logan Ury joins Netflix's latest heartwarming addition to the dating show universe that proves that love doesn't come with an expiration date. The Later Daters, executive produced by Michelle Obama, follows six vibrant baby boomers as they navigate the often-bewildering world of modern dating in search of their next great romance.
At the helm of this love boat is Logan Ury, a Harvard-trained behavioral scientist turned dating coach, whose mission is to help these "silver singles" find meaningful connections. Throughout the eight-episode series, Ury brings her unique blend of scientific expertise and emotional intelligence to guide these 50-plus daters through the maze of online dating, blind dates, and relationship building – proving that whether you're swiping right or meeting for coffee, it's never too late for another shot at love.
Who is Logan Ury?
Behind the warm smile and practical advice lies a fascinating career trajectory. After graduating from Harvard, focusing on human behavior and decision-making, Ury didn't immediately jump into the dating coach arena. Instead, she headed Google's behavioral science unit, the Irrational Lab, where she studied how people make decisions – a skill that would later prove invaluable in her current role as a love guru to the chronologically gifted.
Currently serving as the Director of Relationship Science at dating app Hinge (yes, that's a real job title!), Logan Ury has found her sweet spot by combining behavioral science with matters of the heart. Her approach to The Later Daters blends research-backed strategies with a refreshingly down-to-earth style, helping participants navigate everything from crafting the perfect dating profile to overcoming decades-old relationship fears.
If you're wondering whether Logan Ury practices what she preaches, look no further than her bestselling book How to Not Die Alone. It is a practical guide to finding love and has been praised for its mix of scientific insight and humor.
What is Logan’s social media presence like?
While Logan Ury keeps her exact age under wraps (a true dating expert knows the value of mystery!), her Instagram presence (@loganury) offers followers a mix of dating wisdom, behind-the-scenes glimpses of her work, and proof that millennials can indeed give solid relationship advice to their elders. Her feed serves pieces of life advice, mixing practical tips with relatable content.
Unlike traditional dating coaches who might rely solely on intuition or personal experience, Ury's approach is grounded in behavioral science while remaining surprisingly accessible. On The Later Daters, she doesn't just tell participants what to do – she helps them understand the why behind their dating patterns and decisions.
Her coaching style combines empathy with evidence-based strategies, making her the perfect guide for baby boomers diving back into the dating pool. Whether she's helping a widow overcome grief or teaching a divorcee how to write an engaging dating profile, Ury's approach reminds us that finding love is both an art and a science – and sometimes, the best results come from mixing the two.
The Later Daters is now available to stream on Netflix.
