A new magazine is hitting the stands that will celebrate Jewish home, family and cultural life. Jewish Living takes the focus off of religion, placing it squarely on the cultural and seeking to “acknowledge and enrich” the changing lives of modern Jewish women and their families, according to ZS Publishing U.S. Inc.
The magazine hopes to offer inspirational style ideas and practical, how-to information on a wide range of topics.
The premiere issue has a rate base of 100,000, through a combination of newsstand distribution and pre-launch subscriptions sold to Jewish Federations in North America.
Jewish Living targets a well-educated, urban professional woman between the ages of 25-54 with a median household income of over $125,000.
Prior to joining Jewish Living, editor-in-chief Liza Schoenfein served as executive editor at Saveur and was the founding editor of Parenting.com. Kim Amzallag, publisher, was the luxury goods advertising sales director for Western Interiors, and also held positions at Brides, Travel and Leisure Golf, Saveur and GQ. Creative Director Carol Moskot is an award-winning art director formerly of Toronto Life.
