Now available in the App Store http://goo.gl/m5ttn Collier’s magazine, founded in 1888 by Irish immigrant Peter Collier, was launched as a magazine of "fiction, fact, sensation, wit, humor, and news", and we became known widely for our investigative journalism and social reform-seeking values. Collier’s has always commissioned famous writers including Winston Churchill, Ernest Hemingway, Sinclair
Lewis, Jack London, F. Salinger, John Steinbeck, Pearl S. Buck, and Kurt Vonnegut to report on historical events, such as World War I and the Spanish Civil War, political events, or to write a short story or serialization of a novel. We also published famous articles like “The Great American Fraud” and Upton Sinclair’s “Is Chicago Meat Clean?”, which eventually led to the Senate Meat Inspection Act of 1906. All of these articles and stories have shaped and contributed to Collier’s ultimate goal: to seek the truth. Known for our vibrantly illustrated cover art,Collier’s strives for excellence in creativity and originality. Each issue cover features an original drawing or painting in addition to the other art, cartoons, and comic strips contained inside. These illustrations often tie in with the articles written for each issue, helping make each piece as compelling visually as it is literally and readily accessible to readers. At our peak, Collier’s reached 2.8 million readers of all ages across the world. Now, Collier’s, a staple of American literature, has become a part of American Brands, and will resume publication in 2012, helping to further its roots in literature and continue its legacy of interesting and compelling stories and events that inform and shape our lives. Collier’s invites you -- the reader, the writer, the artist -- to join in its return to the forefront of American popular literature. We welcome your submissions!
