More Magazine was created in 1998 to serve women aged 40-60. It was

redesigned in 2004, and soon after that I took over the Creative Director

role. I modified and focused the design for better clarity, and established its

sophisticated, witty, spirited style of imagery and typography. In the three years

I held that position the magazine’s circulation and advertising pages grew

considerably, as this under served market found and embraced the magazine’s

mission to celebrate women at mid-life. In 2007 it was nominated for a National

Magazine award for General Excellence, and in my three years there it garnered

14 merit awards from the Society of Publication Designers.

Prevention is a 2,000,000 circulation digest magazine published

by Rodale Press. When I became Group Art Director for their women’s

magazines I redesigned it, with an eye toward updating its look to attract

younger readers without alienating its older reader base. It’s newsstand

improved, as did advertising pages, and it was nominated for a National

Magazine award for General Excellence.

tv guide was the largest circulation magazine in the US when I was its Design

Director. During my tenure we produced as many as 35 unique ‘collectible’

covers per week, successfully boosting newsstand sales. As well, we garnered

SPD awards for many of these covers and layouts. I redesigned the magazine

twice during my 5-year tenure.

ParentS Magazine, published by Gruner+Jahr USA with a million+

circulation, was a leader in its category for the 5 years that I was its Creative

Director, from 1993 to 1998. I made gradual changes to its design over the

years to bring it a warm, fresh contemporary look, focusing on the delightful

imagery afforded by its subject, and did a complete redesign in 1998.

HealtH was a women’s magazine

published by Family Media. During

my 5-year tenure there I collaborated

with three editors-in-chief, helping

each of them to realize their unique

vision of the magazine’s content.

Despite its tight budget I brought

top talent to its pages, such as

Andrew Eccles, Jose Picayo,

Matthew Rolston, Christopher Baker

and James Wojcic.
