SPD’s 50th Anniversary Speaker Series continued with For the Love of New York magazine
Founded by Milton Glaser and Clay Felker in 1968, New York established itself as a cradle of New Journalism. Over time, it became more national in scope, publishing writers such as Tom Wolfe, Jimmy Breslin, Nora Ephron, Frank Rich, and John Heilemann.
Since its redesign and relaunch in 2004, the magazine has won more National Magazine Awards than any other publication, which includes the 2013 award for Magazine of the Year. It has been named Magazine of the year in SPD’s PUB competitions three times!
Watch former and present Art Directors and Photography Directors discuss their best moments, memories, and their role in shaping this peerless, legendary magazine brand.

David Curcurito has helmed the visual team at Esquire for over eight years, working with editor David Granger to make it one of the most potent and smartest-looking magazines in the business. Curcurito has a gonzo design style honed at places like The Source and Complex that has given Esquire a wonderful sense of energy, vitality, and engagement.
In addition to Curcurito, Esquire art director Stravinski Pierre and photo director Mike Norseng will also join in to, as Curcurito says “give insight into what it truly takes to give Esquire its unique look and feel.”
