    POINT OF VIEW: EXAMINING THE MAGAZINE INDUSTRY STANDARD A Thesis presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School at the University of Missouri In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts by CRISTINA DAGLAS John Fennell, Thesis Supervisor MAY 2009 © Copyright by Cristina Daglas 2009 All Rights Reserved The undersigned, appointed by the dean of the Graduate School, have examined the thesis entitled POINT OF VIEW : EXAMINING THE MAGAZINE INDUSTRY STANDARD presented by Cristina Daglas, a candidate for the degree of master of arts, and hereby certify that, in their opinion, it is worthy of acceptance. Professor John Fennell Professor Jennifer Rowe Professor Amanda Hinnant Professor Maureen Stanton ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I am immensely grateful to my thesis chair, John Fennell, who believed in both the necessity for and the feasibility of this research. When many doubted the ability to interview prominent magazine professionals, John provided support and guidance while always keeping setbacks and successes in perspective. John has been a mentor from first semester of graduate school when I enrolled in his writing course, and I am so pleased that I could pursue a topic I am incredibly passionate about with his guidance. However, this research would naturally not be what it is without the rest of my fabulous committee. Jennifer Rowe, my other mentor, adviser and friend, was an invaluable resource, as she provided big-picture edits, line edits and, most importantly, support. Amanda Hinnant provided advice in the earliest days of thesis conception as well as the scholarly perspective necessary in any academic work. Maureen Stanton was also a wonderful resource, imparting an outside, nonfiction mindset that added another dimension to this journalistic thesis.

  • Chapter 1 Paulie!
    Chapter 1 Paulie! Blanca! Lola! Christopher! Over here! How about one of the Santisi family all together!” the paparazzi shout as we’re bathed in a meteor shower of flashing lights. It’s blinding as we make our way down the photo-frenzied Red Carpet for Vanity Fair’s annual post-Oscar bash—Hollywood’s primo party of the year. My mother tugs my older brother, Christopher, and me to her and shoots her husband a pleading look. “Please, Paulie, just one of the four of us,” her blood red lips purr, her Mediterranean-colored eyes sparkling through the smoky Paris-runway-ready eye shadow that François Nars himself applied not five hours ago at Villa Santisi. “We can put it on the Christmas card.” Only my crazy Jewish mother would send out Christmas cards—from the VF Red Carpet. Even if we’re not the perfect Norman Rockwell family, my mother would like us to pose for the cameras as if we were. I swear my mother could stand here all night as if she’d won her own Oscar, pirouetting and fanning out the skirt of her shocking pink ruffled satin Chanel gown for the photographers, canting one olive Pilates’d thigh forward (“Slims the profile, Lola, you should try it”). Even the black diamond Neil Lane dragonfly pinning back her shoulder- length platinum hair seems to be begging for a photo. She’s acting like she’s back in Irving Penn’s studio posing for one of the many 1970s Vogue covers she graced. My father rolls his eyes.

  • J 335F Magazine Writing/Production 07785 Fall 2019 Prerequisites
    J 335F Magazine Writing/Production 07785 Fall 2019 Prerequisites: Journalism 310F and 311F with a grade of at least B- in each. Class Meets: 2 p.m.-3:30 p.m. Tuesdays and Thursdays Room: CMA 4.152 Instructor: Kathy Blackwell Email: [email protected] Twitter: @kathyblackwell Office Hours: Thursdays, 1-2 p.m. and by appointment. I encourage everyone to come visit me at the magazine this semester. Overview Welcome to magazine writing and production! In this class, we’ll explore the art of magazine writing— from long-form narratives and in-depth profiles to oral histories, essays, service features, lists, reviews, tight-and-bright pieces, and everything in between. We’ll also look at the industry as a whole—where it’s been, what’s working, what isn’t, and what the future might hold. You have the equivalent of a front-row seat in this rapidly changing world. I’m a full-time magazine editor at Texas Monthly (official title: executive editor), so when I’m not with you, I’m in my office on Congress Avenue or out working on stories. If there’s a hot trending topic or interesting anecdote to share that is relevant to our class, I might switch things up a bit. It’s all in the name of helping you understand the magazine world as a whole, which is exciting and challenging and changes daily. You’ll notice there are a few days this semester where we won’t have class—those are when I expect to be on final deadline for an issue.
