Mouth-watering recipes... and readership stats.
At age 15, Maile Carpenter worked the fry station at a local McDonald’s. Today, the founding editor in chief of Food Network magazine presides over a publication that has 1.75 million subscribers and, even more astonishingly, a ‘pass-along readership of 13.5 million, the largest in the food category.’
Those factoids come from a profile of Carpenter written by Washington Post contributor Alex Witchel. The nuggets are especially intriguing for those of us who are not part of that aforementioned group of 15 million monthly Hearst publication readers.
