We have a new senior food editor joining our staff!

Deb Wagman, former owner of Wire Whisk cooking school in the East Village, will start at Meredith on October 23. She knows food inside and out, and is one fabulous food writer (she’s contributed to many of our SIPs in the last year). Prior to opening the cooking school Deb worked in a photographer’s studio in Newton and worked on many photo projects for Maytag, often styling food. She is moving back to Des Moines from northern Minnesota. I’m thrilled to have such a solid foodie on our editorial team and I know you’ll all enjoy getting to know her and working with her.

We’ll have treats on her start day. Stay tuned for details!
