Artful Living Editor-in-Chief Kate Nelson Named Editorial Director of the Year
Folio Special Recognition Award Honors National Publishing Excellence
MINNEAPOLIS, Aug. 29, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Artful Living is proud to announce that Editor-in-Chief Kate Nelson has been named Editorial Director of the Year by Folio. She will be honored at the 2022 Eddie & Ozzie Awards, the publishing community's most prestigious recognition program that showcases national excellence in editorial content and design across print and digital media. This impressive accolade is one of Folio's special recognition awards, which highlight select individuals and teams who have achieved overall excellence in the past year.
In her 12 years with award-winning lifestyle magazine Artful Living, Nelson has risen from copy editor to editor-in-chief. In that time, she has transformed what was once a small controlled-circulation real-estate publication into one of the United States' top independent boutique lifestyle magazines. Today, she oversees the editorial strategic vision across print and digital platforms while also helping steer the company's overall growth strategy. A proven leader and visionary in consumer publishing, Nelson is one of the youngest female chief editors in the Twin Cities market.
"Under Kate's leadership, Artful Living has evolved from a beloved regional magazine to a world-class publication with an international readership," says President Pete Burgeson. "As we look ahead to our 15th anniversary next year, we're excited to keep pushing the boundaries of our readers, our magazine and our brand."
Nelson's ongoing efforts to produce exceptional editorial content have been recognized with national accolades and acclaim. In 2019, she received a prestigious Folio: Rising Star Award, which honors the media industry's brightest innovators on the rise. In 2020, she received a Folio: Top Women in Media Award, an accolade bestowed upon an elite group of women who represent the industry's top entrepreneurs, change makers and trailblazers. And earlier this year, she was nominated for a James Beard Foundation Media Award.
"I'm incredibly honored to be recognized as Editorial Director of the Year, and I share this prestigious award with my entire Artful Living team," says Nelson. "This shows what a small team with big dreams, incredible talent and endless passion can achieve."
Nelson will receive her special recognition award during the 2022 Eddie & Ozzie Awards Gala at New York's City Winery on September 13. Artful Living's digital platform, ArtfulLiving.com, is also a finalist for Best City/Regional Consumer Website, to be announced during the ceremony.
