AJL Named Atlanta’s Best Local Mag
Atlanta Jewish Life, the specialty mag produced by Jewschool contributors (and former Jewsweek editors) Benyamin Cohen & Bradford Pilcher, was named Best Local Magazine this week by Creative Loafing, Atlanta’s leading alternative weekly.
You don’t have to be Jewish to appreciate ATLANTA JEWISH LIFE. The magazine, which first published in the spring of 2001, comes out every other month and features short, sharply written articles on topics ranging from a Jewish girl’s journey to learn more about her infamous mobster uncle to a profile on Jewish comedian (and former Atlantan) David Cross. Editor Benyamin Cohen hasn’t missed a beat as he’s vested the publication with a young, hip sensibility. The July-August issue’s cover, “Jewish Radio Mafia: A Photo Essay,†is a brilliant, “Sopranosâ€-esque photo lineup of 12 of Atlanta’s Jewish radio personalities, including 99X’s Jimmy Baron and NPR’s Lois Reitzes.
