Samantha Yanks is editor-in-chief of Westport Magazine. Before moving here, she held the same posts at Hamptons and Gotham Magazines. Among her many other accomplishments, she was an editor at O: The Oprah Magazine, and Vogue.

We are lucky to have such a fine editor at the helm of this magazine. Thank you for featuring Samantha Yanks.
