Readers, meet the people who make it all happen: our illustrious contributors. Since we launched this past February, we’ve been lucky enough to have worked with many leading figures in fashion, art, music, food and popular culture, from Ryan McGinley (who premiered his new film Entrance Romance: It Felt Like a Kiss on NOWNESS this June) to chef David Chang (who shared some excellent seafood recipes), from novelist Bret Easton Ellis (who has both read and written for us) to model-turned photographer Elle Muliarchyk (pictured above, attached to Terry Richardson’s chin). Our new contributors section, which debuts today and will continue to be updated in the coming weeks, profiles the individuals who have created and innovated for NOWNESS. On each contributor’s page, you can scroll through all the stories they have worked on, and see which of NOWNESS’s other offerings they have LOVED, as well as find out a little bit more about their past work and upcoming projects. Today also marks the launch of our user profiles—now you can keep track of your favorite stories, get personally tailored recommendations and comment on content within NOWNESS. Just click register above.
