The Reflector is the voice of the Astronomical League and reaches nearly 16,000 members quarterly. This full-color, glossy magazine, averaging over 100 pages annually, feature articles by amateur astronomers, contains important League news, runs advertisements and displays many incredible astrophotographs. All of this cannot happen without an Editor.
The Astronomical League is seeking an Editor for its premier publication, the Reflector.
The Editor is primarily responsible for soliciting stories and photographs of keen interest to the Astronomical League's amateur astronomer members. Since the magazine is a quarterly, the Editor should be capable of planning ahead to cover major astronomical events. Assisting the Editor are two assistant editors, one of whom proofreads and edits copy, and the other who compiles Coming Events. The Editor ultimately works with the Reflector's designer making sure that all copy, photos, and photo captions are complete prior to the designer proceeding to page layouts.
If you have magazine or other publishing experience and are interested in bringing amateur astronomy to the members of the Astronomical League, then this opportunity might be for you. Please contact League President Terry Mann, starsrus--at--infinet--dot--com, or John Goss, goss.john--at--gmail--dot--com, for more details.
