Glamour Snags Creative Director From Rival Elle

Paul Ritter to take over top design post next month

Elle design director Paul Ritter is leaving Hearst Magazines to become creative director of rival Condé Nast title Glamour. Ritter, who will replace the magazine’s creative director of five years, Geraldine Hessler, starts Nov. 11.

The design veteran joined Elle in 2007, and last year, also consulted on the launch of Jason Binn's DuJour magazine. Previously, Ritter worked on a number of redesigns for titles including the now-defunct (and former Glamour sister mag) Jane, BlackBook and Magazine Sans Nom.
