New Idea’s Amy Sinclair to edit Famous

After a six month search, Famous publisher Gereurd Roberts has appointed his colleague Amy Sinclair as the magazine’s new editor.

Roberts, previously the magazine’s editor-in-chief, was announced as publisher in July, remaining in the editorial role until his successor could be appointed.

Sinclair joins from fellow Pacific Magazines titles New Idea where she has been editor since late 2009. Before that she was editor of ACP’s Woman’s Day.

Roberts said:  “Amy’s reputation, insight and experience within the weekly magazine market are unrivalled.
