Tina Brown visits the Seattle Scene a’la JJ

Society-host extraordinaire JJ McKay brought together a group last night of Seattle’s luminaries and literati to fully welcome legendary journalist and editor Tina Brown. Held at the beautiful Bagley and Virginia Wright Gallery, Tina shared with the crowd her successful career in journalism. Most notably, she discussed how both print and digital communication can work together which is reflected in her latest project, The Newsweek Daily Beast Company.
