MacKenzie S. Tuttle was born on April 7, 1970 in San Francisco, California to a financial planner father and a homemaker mother. In 1988, she graduated from Hotchkiss School in Connecticut.
In 1992, MacKenzie worked for Jeff Bezos at D.E. Shaw, a New York City hedge fund. They married in 1993, and moved to Seattle, Washington in 1994. They have four children. In 2012, the couple donated $2.5 million to a Washington State campaign to legalize same-sex marriage.
In November 2013, Bezos wrote a 922-word review on Amazon.com of The Everything Store: Jeff Bezos and the Age of Amazon by Bloomberg Businessweek Journalist Brad Stone, giving the book a one-star rating, and saying that it "has too many inaccuracies" and is a "misrepresentation of the culture at the world's largest online retailer".
In 2014, MacKenzie Bezos founded Bystander Revolution, an anti-bullying organization, where she currently serves as executive Director.
