ABSTRACT
Danielle McNally is typical of young feature writers working for magazines these days. She had recently graduated from college with a journalism degree and was looking for a job in the magazine industry. McNally, originally from St. Petersburg, FL, headed for New York City, the center of magazine publishing in the United States, just weeks after she finished school. Armed with an internship at a national magazine and considerable experience as the founding editor of her undergraduate campus magazine at the University of Miami, she had high hopes of finding work and beginning her climb up the editorial ladder to write for, and eventually edit, a national magazine.
