Martha Stewart Living

Martha Stewart has always fascinated me. She was born in Jersey City, New J and when she was 10 years old she started working by babysitting for Mickey Mantle, Yogi Berra and some of the New Your Yankees.She then started to model when she was 13 and was in television and magazine ads. remember Tareyton cigarettes famous ad "I'd rather fight then switch". She was part of that ad.

In 1990 Martha Stewart signed with Time Publishing Ventures to develop a magazine called Martha Stewart Living and the circulation rose to over 2 million copies per issue.. Then, in 1997 she purchased the rights related to her brand and put them all under the umbrellas Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia. One could write about her for years but suffice it to say that New York Magazine was right when they named her the "Definitive American Woman of our Time. Good job Martha.
