The Tin House
Scenery in Portland picture - "Tin House is the brainchild of Win McCormack, a Portland, Oregon-based publisher who was tired of stuffy, staid literary magazines that go down like cough medicine. In the summer of 1998, determined to create an entirely new kind of intelligent magazine, McCormack and Managing Editor Holly MacArthur enlisted the help of veteran New York editors Rob Spillman and Elissa Schappell. With offices in Portland and New York, Tin House taps the energy of both coasts, with a concerted effort to reach beyond the scope of the incestuous publishing world of New York. Tin House has contributing editors scattered around the world, from San Francisco to Santiago, from Los Angeles to Edinburgh."
