Men’s Journal editor James Kaminsky will take over the newly created role of editorial director at Maxim magazine. Kaminsky served at Maxim from 1992 until 2002 as executive editor, writes DM News.
Ken Brownridge, CEO of Alpha Media - which now owns Maxim, Stuff and Blender - worked with Kaminsky when they were both at Wenner Media. Brownridge is now shaking things up at the trio of men’s magazines, having shuttered Stuff and shuffled staff at all of the pubs.
