[caption id="attachment_126791" align="alignright" width="150"] Arianna Davis[/caption] Arianna Davis was appointed as digital director of O, The Oprah Magazine’s latest venture, OprahMag.com, a new website set to launch this fall. While existing as a stand-alone site, OprahMag.com has the same mission as the glossy to "bring joy and a sense of possibility to help women reach for their dreams, experience personal growth, express their individual style and love the journey." Davis will begin this role immediately. Davis most recently served as a senior features writer at Refinery29 since 2016, where she oversaw special projects and created content for the site’s channel, Unbothered, which is aimed at R29’s black, millennial audience. She is rejoining O, The Oprah Magazine, where she had served as an associate editor under editor-at-large, Gayle King, up until 2015. She previously led the magazine’s Live Your Best Life section. The site, coming 18 years after the launch of Oprah's namesake magazine, will share similar values to the print publication, according to Kate Lewis, Hearst Magazines Digital Media SVP, editorial director. “O Mag beautifully helps its readers live their best lives. The site will be an extension of the vision, mission and overall DNA of the magazine which has been so successful for so many years,” Lewis said. Here are the rest of this week's people on the move... [caption id="attachment_126813" align="alignright" width="150"] Gregory... Continue reading at 'Folio Magazine'
