Mark Edward Harris
A number of the contributors whose work appears in Travel
Weekly and on TravelWeekly.com are writers and photographers of international
renown: They write best-selling books and are featured in the pages of the most
widely read magazines in the world.
That portion of their work that appears exclusively in
Travel Weekly becomes part of our Masters Series.
Monday’s Masters Series cover story features the photography
of a man whose award-winning photography has appeared in Vanity Fair, Life,
Conde Nast Traveler and major publications in Germany, Japan, Russia, Brazil,
the UK and other countries. Many of his books of travel photography, including
titles devoted to Iran, North Korea and the bathhouses of Japan, have gone into
multiple printings, and he is in demand to photograph celebrities from South
Korea’s (“Gangnam Style”) Psy to actors Harrison Ford and Matthew McConaughey.
His commercial clients include The Gap and Coca Cola.
He has created content exclusively for Travel Weekly on
several destinations, from North Korea to San Antonio. He recently turned his
lens back toward Japan for a feature that will appear on TravelWeekly.com and
in print on Monday.
Among other writers who have appeared in our Masters Series:
• Pico Iyer, who has both authored critically acclaimed,
best-selling books and also written for dozens of international periodicals; he
has been an essayist for Time magazine since 1982 and is a former Harvard
writing professor. His TED talks have been viewed 4 million times. He recently
wrote about a Delta Airlines exhibit based on one of his books that was
installed at a TED conference.
• Patricia Schultz, author of "1,000 Places to See
Before You Die" and who, after the recent earthquake in Nepal, wrote
movingly in Travel Weekly about her previous experiences there.
• Abe Peck, former dean of the Medill School of Journalism
at Northwestern University and a former associate editor at Rolling Stone
magazine, who has explored topics for Travel Weekly from the problems facing
gay travelers to the sometimes dicey political challenges of visiting Tibet.
The Masters -- Harris, Schultz and Peck are also
contributing editors -- complement the largest, most experienced, award-winning
staff in travel business journalism. The combination of the Masters and the
daily publication of staff-written news, trends, research, analysis and opinion
provide Travel Weekly readers with a critical business advantage: unrivaled
industry insight.
