Mademoiselle (magazine)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mademoiselle was an influential women's magazine published by Condé Nast Publications.
Its historically notable contribution to literature was that it published short stories by noted authors such as Truman Capote, which other magazines did not. Also, Sylvia Plath's experiences during the summer of 1953 — as a guest editor at Mademoiselle in New York City and in deepening depression back home — provided the basis for The Bell Jar, her only novel.
One of the most influential artists of this century, Barbara Kruger was the art director and image developer, creating works using anchorage, which was used in the magazine.
The November 2001 issue was its last. Some of the magazine's staff and features were folded into Glamour, also published by Condé Nast.
