Mahj
Thirty years ago, Kathy Wise learned to play mahjong from a friend's Jewish grandmother while she was a law student at The Ohio State University (Go Bucks!). She spent a decade as a litigator before deciding to pursue her original passion, magazines. In 2016, she joined D Magazine, where she currently serves as editorial director. Under her leadership, the magazine has won numerous national awards, including CRMA awards for General Excellence and Excellence in Writing. Kathy has personally won a CRMA Award for reporting for “The Most Lawless County in Texas,” a feature about a Collin County judge who was convicted of a crime she didn’t commit, and a Folio Award for “The Rogue Shepherd,” a profile of Bonton Farms founder Daron Babcock. Inspired by the recent resurgence of mahjong, she decided to found a new national publication dedicated to the game she loves. When Marshall McKinney agreed to come on board as the creative director, she knew they were about to create something remarkable. Order at https://mahj.com/ Support the show
