All About AJ, Our Editor
Our founding editor is Alison Jane Reid. AJ knew she wanted to be a magazine journalist by the age of 12. After taking a degree in English Literature, inspired by a passion for words and books, AJ went on to fulfil that dream, training at Mirror Group Newspapers and The Photographer Magazine, before becoming a contributing editor and feature writer at The Times Magazine for a decade. For the past 25 years, AJ has interviewed several hundred cultural icons including - Naomi Watts, Sienna Miller, Vanessa Redgrave, Sir David Attenborough, Brian May, John Simpson, Jane Seymour, Glenn Close, Ted Danson, Simon Callow, Rose Byrne, John Downing, Anna Friel, Kim Cattrall, Hugh Bonneville, Colin Morgan, Jenny Agutter, Suzanne Vega, Joely Richardson, Keira Knightley, Catherine Walker, Patrick Lichfield, Karl Lagerfeld, Pierre Berge, The La Perla Family and many more.
Why AJ Started The Luminaries Magazine
AJ started decided to launch her own independent slow arts and culture magazine because magazine journalism doesn't thrill any more and it really should! Plus AJ got fired for refusing to ask one of the most famous people on the planet personal requestions about their family. That was the final straw. A culture of bullying and insecurity is endemic in newspapers and magazines. Support our social enterprise magazine, our good ethics and mentoring and placements for arts and media students at universities in the UK, Europe and the US. We are a certified social enterprise and small business. Help us to write and do more and delight you with slow journalism that makes your day!
