Our Third Annual Women's magazine editor dinner at The Four Seasons was a blast! Co-hosts Brandon Holley (Jane), Cindi Leive (Glamour), Isobel McKenzie-Price (All You), Janice Min (Us Weekly), Mandi Norwood (Shop Etc.), Kate White (Cosmopolitan) were delightful and delivered the goods on the panel. The discussion mainly centered around their careers and work lives. During dinner, the 80 women's magazine editors (yes, men can be women's mag editors, too!) seated at the tables discussed everything from "How the internet impacts on magazines' content" to "magazines' celebrity addiction." The Four Seasons' food was yummy. Shopping.com was the sponsorso apropos for this group, wouldn't you say?
