Note(s) : In this entertaining anthology, editors, writers, art directors, and publishers from
such magazines as Vanity Fair, The New Yorker, The New Republic, Elle, and Harper's
draw on their varied, colorful experiences to explore a range of issues concerning
their profession. Combining anecdotes with expert analysis, these leading industry
insiders speak on writing and editing articles, developing great talent, effectively
incorporating art and design, and the critical relationship between advertising dollars
and content. They emphasize the importance of fact checking and copyediting; share
insight into managing the interests (and potential conflicts) of various departments;
explain how to parlay an entry-level position into a masthead title; and weigh the
increasing influence of business interests on editorial decisions. In addition to
providing a rare, behind-the-scenes look at the making of successful and influential
magazines, these contributors address the future of magazines in a digital environment
and the ongoing importance of magazine journalism. Full of intimate reflections and
surprising revelations, The Art of Making Magazines is both a how-to and a how-to-be
guide for editors, journalists, students, and anyone hoping for a rare peek between
the lines of their favorite magazines. The chapters are based on talks delivered as
part of the George Delacorte Lecture Series at the Columbia School of Journalism
