Update on the future of JPG Magazine: it’s very good news and a testimony to the power of community

March 2, 2009 by Lanora

If you've been following the uplifting story about the rescue of JPG Magazine, the hybrid online and print photo publication comprised entirely of content submitted and juried by its reader community, you'll be happy to learn the latest news.

On Friday, February 27, JPG's Editor in Chief Laura Brunow Miner announced that a new president and CEO has been promoted from the ranks, in the person of Seth Familian, formerly vice president of product management. Seth shared the best part of the story: new investors are officially on board and Adorama is in place as the site's Premier Community Partner.

"JPG is simply too special and unique to vanish. Our new investors … believe strongly in the potential of JPG as a business." 
President & CEO Seth Familian
