Veranda Taps Clinton Smith as Editor in Chief

Dara Caponigro to step down this fall

Last May, Dara Caponigro, the editor in chief of Hearst’s bimonthly shelter title Veranda, announced that she was planning to step down this fall. In a nod to the magazine’s Southern roots, Hearst revealed today that Caponigro’s replacement will be Clinton Smith, the editorial director of Atlanta Homes & Lifestyles.

Smith has led the Atlanta design title since 2003, save for a brief stint as a senior senior editor at Time Inc.’s now-shuttered Southern Accents from 2007 to 2008.
