A news release from Berkshire Living.
Today Media, independent, family-owned parent company of Westchester, Hudson Valley, Main Line Today and Delaware Today magazines, is adding Berkshire Living and its affiliated publications including BBQ: Berkshire Business Quarterly and Berkshire Living home+garden to its lineup of award-winning regional magazines.
Berkshire Living and its affiliated publications are expected to be re-launched under new ownership beginning in the spring.
In the interim, Berkshire Living’s online platforms continue to publish new content, including e-newsletters BerkshireDaily and WeekendPreview, BerkshireLiving.com, and Berkshire Living’s social media feeds.
“We have long admired what Michael Zivyak and Seth Rogovoy have accomplished with the Berkshire Living brand over the past six years, and we are thrilled to add their award-winning lineup of print and online publications to our group,” said Rob Martinelli, President of Today Media.
Martinelli said Zivyak would remain at the helm of Berkshire Living as publisher. “I couldn’t imagine a better partner for Berkshire Living than Today Media,” says Zivyak. “The Martinellis and their magazines share the same commitment we have always had to independent journalism and the production of high-quality, upscale products befitting their readership in their respective markets.”
Seth Rogovoy will continue as editor-in-chief of Berkshire Living and all its affiliated publications, website, and other online platforms and social media.
Berkshire Living was represented by Regional Media Advisors in this transaction.
