Speaking of Southern Living, this August marks Lindsay Bierman’s first year as editor, where he has introduced countless new columns including: “The Paper Napkin Interview,” a Q&A with a Southern star at her hometown diner (debuted in July), “Mother/Daughter Style,” where a Mom and daughter showcase two looks, and many more.

The August issue of Southern Living (hitting newsstands next Friday 7/22) profiles individuals and communities who weathered the recent tornadoes that struck the South.  On 12,000 copies of distribution across the bulk of Alabama, Southern Living is giving 5% of the cover price on every issue sold to the American Red Cross to help tornado victims in the South.
