Michael J. Berman
Michael J. Berman is an American businessman, responsible for founding ''George (magazine), George'' magazine with John F. Kennedy, Jr. in 1995. Due to Kennedy's fame, it was the largest magazine launch that year. At the time of the launch, Berman owned a New York public relations firm. The two had apparently been quietly working on the project for several years before selling an interest to global publisher Hachette Filipacchi Media, which was responsible for its launch. Berman sold his share of the company in 1997 and continued to serve as ''George''s president until 1998. Berman has subsequently headed several media-related and investment companies, including holding the post of chairman at Novix Media and president and Chief Operating Officer of Hachette Productions, a Hachette Filipacchi subsidiary that focuses on film and television media. As of 2003, he serves as president of Galaxy Ventures. References {{DEFAULTSORT:Berman, Michael J American chief operating offi ...

George (magazine)
''George'' was a glossy monthly magazine centered on the theme of politics-as-lifestyle founded by John F. Kennedy Jr. and Michael J. Berman with publisher Hachette Filipacchi Media U.S. in New York City in September 1995. Its tagline was "Not Just Politics As Usual." It was published from 1995 to 2001. Overview For the debut issue, creative director Matt Berman (no relation to co-founder Michael Berman) conceived a cover which received a great deal of attention for its image of Cindy Crawford dressed as George Washington photographed by Herb Ritts. ''George'' departed from the format of traditional political publications, whose audience primarily comprised people in or around the political world. The general template for ''George'' was similar to magazines such as ''Rolling Stone'', ''Esquire'' or '' Vanity Fair''. The consistent underlying theme was to marry the themes of celebrity and media with the subject of politics in such a way that the general public would find politica ...

Chief Operating Officer
A chief operating officer or chief operations officer, also called a COO, is one of the highest-ranking executive positions in an organization, composing part of the "C-suite". The COO is usually the second-in-command at the firm, especially if the highest-ranking executive is the chairperson and CEO. The COO is responsible for the daily operation of the company and its office building and routinely reports to the highest-ranking executive—usually the chief executive officer (CEO). Responsibilities and similar titles Unlike other C-suite positions, which tend to be defined according to commonly designated responsibilities across most companies, a COO's job tends to be defined in relation to the specific CEO with whom they work, given the close working relationship of these two individuals. The selection of a COO is similar in many ways to the selection of a vice president or chief of staff of the United States: power and responsibility structures vary in government and priva ...
