Magazine by a Soror
First African-American Homes, Decor, Style & Career Magazine, How We Live Magazine, Gets Distribution With Wal-Mart
Dana F. Tucker, Publisher and Editor-In-Chief of How We Live Magazine
Columbia, SC (BlackNews.com) - The mega super store retailer chain, Wal-Mart, will add one more title to its name: distributor for How We Live Magazine: A showcase of African-American Homes, Décor, Style and Careers. The magazine is the first product of Columbia, South Carolina-based Minerva Media & Publishing, Incorporated and is a quarterly publication whose core focus centers on homes, décor, style, and careers. The magazine showcases and celebrates minority and African-American distinction, creativity, history, culture, talent and beauty.
How We Live Magazine acts as a resource - a solution and sounding board to all would-be décor aficionados. The magazine's mission is to enlighten and to inspire our readers about elegant African-American living at home, to bridge the gap of understanding about "how we live" vis-à-vis the quality of life therein, and to give voice to professionals who excel in the areas of design, décor, & style. Additionally, we want to encourage homeowners to invest in their greatest investment - their home. How We Live can be described as a blending of House Beautiful meets Ebony meets In-Style - all wrapped up into one.
The magazine primarily features the homes and lifestyles of African-Americans, but it is intended to affect the lives of readers from all ethnic backgrounds," said Dana Tucker, founder and C.E.O. "The magazine was created to act as a conduit between its subjects and stories about African-American (and other minority-) style, décor and accomplishment, and its readers throughout the nation and world. It highlights professionals who are masters of their craft and targets those who appreciate the tastes of varied cultures."
The homeowners, business professionals, and artists Dana Tucker features will be those she and her staff want to serve as beacons of inspiration - she wants their stories, their homes, their style and their careers to be admired so much, they inspire others to seek to achieve as well. "The youth and children of our community hold the key to our future and success - as a people - for years to come, I want my magazine to encourage and inspire them to consider entrepreneurship and stepping out on faith like I did," Tucker said.
Dana Tucker currently resides in Columbia with her husband, Greg Tucker, and their daughter, Madison Sophia. Also a professionally trained calligrapher and Toastmaster, this multi-tasker is currently completing her MBA Degree at Webster University in Columbia. She recently completed the 18-week Interior Decorating Certificate Program at Columbia's Midlands Technical College; she is active with Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Incorporated and Francis Burns UMC.
