Yahoo Shine Editor Brandon Holley Exits, Returns To Condé Nast
Brandon Holley is leaving Yahoo (NSDQ: YHOO) after three years to return to the print magazine world as editor-in-chief of Condé Nast’s Lucky. Her official start date is September 20. For the past two years, Holley was the E-i-C and business lead for Yahoo women’s content site Shine.
Holley arrived at Yahoo in Nov. 2007 to begin building up its women-centric content. Back in March, a NYT profile described Holley as loving her job at Shine, but added that she was “wistful” that her new life as “a digital women’s-service journalist is much less glamorous than her old one at Condé Nast’s glossy dream factory.”

Holley had left Condé Nast after the publisher pulled the plug on Jane. Before that, she was noted for helping create Elle Girl for Hachette Filipacchi Media in 2001. At Lucky, Holley replaces Kim France, who is leaving the company.
