It started with one very simple vision: to inspire women through entertainment. Founder and Editor-in-Chief Lucia Tran created Zooey Magazine from the ground up. Since Zooey’s official launch in 2010, the magazine has thrived as a nationally-distributed print publication dedicated to women everywhere. There is nothing on the newsstands that can be compared to Zooey’s unique image and perspective.

As an indie-mod magazine, Zooey showcases chapters of fashion, art, photography, and great stories on amazing people and things. Not only is Zooey a credible figure in the entertainment industry, Zooey is also loved by both talents and readers everywhere.

What separates Zooey Magazine apart from other pop-culture/lifestyle magazines is the people behind it. Zooey is composed of worldwide contributors with a core team in Los Angeles who love nothing but collaboration and putting out a charming product every other month. The “Zooey Team” is a combination of various personalities who simply love to create.

Zooey isn’t just a magazine, it’s a livelihood. There’s a certain life that Zooey audiences lead, and that is to live chic. As our motto goes, “chic never looked so powerful.”

Where did the name Zooey come from?
J.D. Salinger’s protagonist Zooey, in his beloved novel “Franny and Zooey,” is a person of genuine intelligence and sophistication. By creating a magazine that reflects a mere image of Zooey, we hope to convey an inspiring and enjoyable atmosphere for forward adults who enjoy good reading and beautiful art.
