OVER 13 years experience running your favorite magazines
WERÖLD ARCHIVE was founded by Megan Wray Schertler. Previously the Publishing Director of Highsnobiety, Schertler has launched, rebranded, and managed some of the most iconic titles of the last decade, including Fantastic Man, Interview, CR Fashion Book, CR Men, Document Journal, COS Magazine, and Hypebeast.
Her career in magazines began at the age of 8 when she founded the one-sheet magazine Meg Mag and forced the manager of her local Blockbuster to stock copies on the check-out counter. Then, in 2011, Schertler worked at Marie Claire UK while completing her dissertation on Fantastic Man at Central Saint Martins, resulting in the a-ha moment of realizing that print wasn’t dying. Rather, the outdated business models that the magazine industry was clinging to needed urgent innovation. Her dedication to future-proofing magazine publishing remains. You can hear her discuss some of her past projects on Monocle’s The Stack.
She is also the co-founder and publisher of Mnemosyne Projects, recently publishing The Warp of Time (available at Gagosian Shop).
