or 80-plus years, Parade magazine has celebrated America—its strengths, stars and stories. From its beginning as the 5-cents-a-copy “Weekly Picture


Newspaper” in 1941 (125,000 copies were sold that year), the magazine grew to a readership of more than 50 million and has been distributed in 900-plus newspapers across the country (the Nashville Tennessean was the fi rst in 1941). Week aſt er week, Parade tells stories of ordinary and extraordinary people—that boy who delivers your paper, the swimming teacher, the cook, the adventurer, presiden- tial hopefuls, athletes, generals, writers and acting legends. As we transition to an e-edition available on your news-


paper’s site, Parade says thank you to readers for your loyalty and invites you along for our next adventure. In the meantime, we take a lit le walk down memory lane. —Anne Krueger

WHEN THE WRITERS WERE STARS The famous faces weren’t just in Parade. Here are a few of our star writers.

Author” Calling Hemingway “one of the few great American authors who never attended college,” Parade’s Lloyd Shearer ex- plores three upcoming book-to-movie projects: The Sun Also Rises, A Farewell to Arms and The Old Man and the Sea.

October 23, 1983 “Clint Eastwood by Norman Mailer” Writer Mailer (of The Naked and the Dead fame) sat down with actor-director Eastwood and the result was just as en- tertaining and opinionated as you’d expect. “I’m angry at Eastwood,” Mailer writes. “He doesn’t know how good he is.

January 8, 2006 “Now Is Her Time” Gail Sheehy (her 1976 book, Passages, was a huge hit) shares insights from her new book, Sex and the Seasoned Woman, gained from interviews with women in their 40s through 90s. The upshot: It’s never too late for a woman to reshape her life, follow a new dream or be open to love, sex and spirituality.


“How to Prevent an ‘Accidental War’” March 20, 1960


Parade was instrumental in advocating for the Moscow-Washington hotline that is sometimes called the “red phone.” An open letter to President Dwight D. Eisenhower and Premier Nikita Khrushchev was written by the then-editor of Parade, Jess Gorkin, in 1960. On April 23, 1963, President John F. Kennedy personally thanked Gorkin for his advocacy work on behalf of the hotline. Kennedy’s letter was published in a June 1963 issue.


PETS ON PARADE


There have been hundreds of animals featured on the cover of Parade during the past 81 years. The 1950s was a particularly furry and feathery decade for Parade . . .
