OPERATIONS

Christina MacLean
Editor-in-Chief & GM
Chris MacLean began her magazine career in 1976 as a Director with Canadian Review magazine (published by E. Graydon Carter, now editor of Vanity Fair magazine). She also worked at ad agencies in Ottawa such as the Bytown Group and Media Edge. Chris returned to industry management positions at Aubut and Associates and KG Campbell Corp before seizing an opportunity to return to the challenge of magazine publishing. Chris began work on Vanguard magazine in 1998, rising to Managing Editor and finally General Manager. After the untimely passing of the publisher (her mentor) in the summer of 2003, Chris then took on the challenge of establishing Canada’s FRONTLINE magazines, which quickly took the lead in both the defence and public safety sectors.
