Blender Refugee Moves To Maxim As Creative Director

Dirk Barnett has been named creative director at Maxim.

Barnett had been in the same role at sister pub Blender until Alpha Media Group shuttered the music magazine in March.

While at Blender, Barnett led a redesign of the pub that has been nominated for a “Redesign of the Year” award by the Society of Publication Designers.

Maxim editor-in-chief Joe Levy, who moved over from the EIC spot at Blender when the plug was pulled last month, said in the release, “I am thrilled and privileged to be able to continue to work with him at Maxim.”
