Working Woman (magazine)

Working Woman was an American magazine that ceased publication in September 2001 after 25 years.[1]

History and profile

Working Woman was acquired by Lang Communications in 1978.[2][3] It was published on a monthly basis.[2] The magazine and its sister publication Working Mother were sold to MacDonald led by Jay MacDonald in 1996.[4] The magazine were later published by Delia Passi Smalter.[5] As its name implies, the magazine targeted working women, unlike traditional women's magazines which focused on women's roles as wives and mothers, or on fashion.[6]
