Keija Minor is an African-American magazine editor and former lawyer. From 2012 to 2017, she was editor-in-chief of Condé Nast weddings magazine Brides, becoming the first African-American to hold the editor-in-chief title at Condé Nast.

Early life

Minor grew up in Harvard, Massachusetts, and attended the University of Massachusetts-Amherst,[1] then Howard University Law School, where she graduated in 1999.[2]

Career

Minor practiced corporate law for four years before moving to magazines,[3] first joining Travel Savvy where she eventually became editor-in-chief. She also worked for Los Angeles Confidential, then as editor-in-chief of Gotham from 2005 to 2007 and Uptown (2008 to 2011)[4] before joining Condé Nast.[5] Minor became executive editor of Brides, the world's largest weddings publication,[6] in 2011,[7] then acting editor-in-chief when previous editor-in-chief Anna Fulenwider moved to Marie Claire; the promotion became permanent in November 2012.[8] This made Minor the first African-American to hold the editor-in-chief title in Condé Nast's then-103-year history.[9] At Brides, Minor oversaw the expansion of the publication into commercial endeavors,[10] including making editors from the magazine available for hire as private consultants to individual brides.[11]

In 2013, The Grio named Minor to its Grio 100 list, citing her "breaking Conde Nast's color barrier at Brides."[12]

Minor resigned from Condé Nast in 2017.[13]
