Fortune
Magazine | Mainstream
The magazine Fortune was founded by Time Magazine co-founder Henry Luce in 1930 at the outset of the Great Depression. During the Depression, it developed a reputation for its social conscience; Walker Evans and Margaret Bourke-White's color photographs; and a team of writers including James Agee, Archibald MacLeish, John Kenneth Galbraith, and Alfred Kazin who were hired specifically for their writing abilities. By 1937 the magazine had a subscription rate of 460,000. Fortune is now part of the media conglomerate Time Warner; its website is part of the CNN.com family of websites. More » (Source: Wikipedia)
