Your editor and publisher

Local Color is locally owned and operated. Editor Mark Humbert has been a journalist for more than five decades (yes, he started working for a city weekly while still in high school, becoming its city editor when a senior). He has worked in daily newspapers for the last 30 years and has served in nearly every possible position on "news side," as reporter, copy editor, city editor, managing editor. Humbert has won numerous statewide awards in Colorado and New Mexico for his work. And, perhaps most important, he agreed when his wife and co-publisher Allison said, "It's time to start the magazine." Contact Humbert at mark@localcolormag.com or 720-937-6064.

Allison has been a working journalist for only more than four decades (not because she's younger than Humbert but because she waited until after college to begin her professional career). She has worked in daily newspapers, magazines and nonprofit communications on "news side" and "advertising side" as reporter, advertising manager, managing editor, marketing manager and public information officer. She has dreamed of starting Local Color magazine for her community for years. With your enthusiasm and support, they are living her dream.
