[caption id="attachment_171101" align="alignright" width="150"] Luise Stauss[/caption] The Atlantic named Luise Stauss as its first director of photography this week. Stauss, who will be joining the recently-expanded art team led by creative director Peter Mendelsund, will be based out of The Atlantic’s New York office and will work to grow the magazine’s photography contributions. “As we emphasize quality and aesthetic sophistication, our goal is to make The Atlantic an industry leader in photography.
