Joshua Glass is the founder and editor-in-chief of Family Style, the New York-based, internationally-distributed independent magazine that has carved out its place in just three years at the crossroads of fashion, design, art, and gastronomy. With a print run of 100,000 copies and partnerships signed with Hermès, Cartier, Dior, Ralph Lauren, and Chanel, he has pulled off what few still dare to attempt in 2026: launching a print magazine and making it profitable.
