Sally Singer has been selected as the new editor of T:
The New York Times Style Magazine, Bill Keller, executive editor of
The New York Times, announced today. Since its debut in 2003, T has been
at the forefront of luxury magazines, exploring the worlds of fashion,
beauty, design, living and travel. Ms. Singer will take over the helm on
July 5.
"Sally has the combination of aesthetic sense and intellectual curiosity
suited to a style magazine that wears the name of The New York Times,”
said Mr. Keller. "We were looking for someone with the imagination and
taste to envision the next generation of this extraordinary franchise,
and the experience to make it happen.”
Ms. Singer has been at Vogue since 1999, where she oversaw the fashion
news and features departments. Earlier she was fashion director at New
York Magazine, style director of Elle, and the commissioning editor for
features at British Vogue.
She has edited at the London Review of Books, Verso/New Left Review, and
Farrar Straus and Giroux. She has also written for the Atlantic Monthly,
the Economist, the Guardian and the Times Literary Supplement, among
other publications.
One of the style world’s most successful magazine launches, T is now
published 15 times a year. It translates style in a way that is
beautiful, insightful and relevant and features the work of some of the
world's most illustrious photographers, including Robert Maxwell,
Raymond Meier and Jean Baptiste-Mondino.
T has an audience that is as sophisticated as its content. It offers
advertisers a lush, brand-appropriate luxury editorial environment with
readers who are world travelers, discriminating shoppers and design
aficionados. Its global presence has expanded as it has become a leading
online style destination and is now distributed in the International
Herald Tribune in Europe and the Middle East.
The T Web site is updated daily and offers original Web-only content,
including news and views by some of the most trusted voices in the
industry, as well as exclusive videos like the popular "Screen
Test” series of celebrity interviews and "The
Moment” blog on NYTimes.com/TMagazine.
