About Us
New York Magazine obsessively chronicles the ideas, people, and cultural events that are forever reshaping our world. Part of Vox Media since November 2019, the beloved and influential New York brands include the groundbreaking magazine New York, which is published biweekly in print, and six thriving verticals: Intelligencer, delivering national news and sharp commentary on politics, business, technology, and media; The Cut, covering style, self, culture, and power; Vulture, the premier site for culture news, criticism and service; The Strategist, dedicated to shopping the internet smartly; Curbed, covering cities and city life; and Grub Street, home to food news and authoritative restaurant criticism.
Launched in April 1968 by the editor Clay Felker and the graphic designer Milton Glaser, New York was in its early days the place to read Tom Wolfe, Gloria Steinem, Pete Hamill, Jimmy Breslin, and Gail Sheehy. In the five decades since, it has received 48 National Magazine Awards, and in 2018 it won its first Pulitzer Prize, for art criticism.
From the beginning, New York’s sophisticated, knowing, enthusiastic voice found a readership far beyond the magazine’s namesake city. In the digital era, that audience is global, as readers everywhere have come to crave our vocal coverage of television or fashion or politics and food or, increasingly, all of the above. (Plus the crossword puzzle.) Today, New York’s brands publish approximately 100 stories per day and draw more than 100 million readers each month.
