Michael Pickering to edit Men's Style
July 14
ACP Magazines today
announced that Michael Pickering would become editor of Men’s Style, stepping into the role following Peter
Holder’s appointment as weekly titles publisher.
In a 10-year career at
ACP, Michael has edited several titles within the men’s group, and notably was Ralph’s
longest serving editor during its most successful period (2003-2008).
Prior to joining ACP, he
worked for Text Media and Federal Publishing and has done freelance stints as a
writer, sub and editor on a wide range of other magazines. More recently, his
freelancing work has appeared in Rolling Stone, Harper’s Bazaar
and Men’s Style.
Phil Scott, ACP
Magazines group publishing director, said: “Michael’s handle on magazine craft
and production standards, not to mention his considered approach to publishing
in general, makes him the ideal person to take Men’s Style back into the
bi-monthly frequency, starting with its Spring issue.”
Michael will report to
Peter Holder, who in addition to his new role will remain as publisher of the
title he launched for ACP in 2003.
