Mary Margaret is Entertainment Weekly’s new editor in chief, according to a Wednesday announcement. She is the first woman to hold the position in the company’s history.
“As the brand’s first female EIC, as an Asian woman and as someone who has enjoyed a career in both media and tech, it’s important to me that we represent the richness and variety of storytelling, from the storytellers and the stories to the different mediums we experience those stories through,” said Margaret in a Wednesday statement.
She added, “In this unprecedented time, we’ve all been thankful for those moments of delight–a show, a song, a book, a movie–that helped us connect, dream, have a laugh or have a good cry.
