A note from the Editor:

For years—decades, in fact—I operated as an independent publisher, because no one told me how crazy that was. Although we were non-profit without the benefits (artisans out there, you can relate!), everybody in our shop enjoyed doing custom-quality work, and remarkably, the bills got paid…for a long, long time.

Media and publishing are changing, rapidly and unpredictably.

Ultimate Arts & Crafts - inside a Colonial Revival!

This gambrel-roofed brick Georgian house in New Hampshire was built in 1901. Its classical massing and stately portico are clearly meant to impress.

Pilgrimage: Willamette Valley, Oregon

Brian Coleman takes us past rural vistas and vineyards in Oregon’s Willamette Valley to see bungalows in Silverton and towns revived.

Patricia Poore is Editor-in-chief of Old House Journal and Arts & Crafts Homes, as well as editorial director at Active Interest Media’s Home Group, overseeing New Old House, Traditional Building, and special-interest publications.

Poore joined Old House Journal when it was a Brooklyn-brownstoner newsletter in the late 1970s. She became owner and publisher and, except for the years 2002–2013, has been its editor. Poore founded the magazines Old-House Interiors (1995–2013) and Early Homes (2004–2017); their content is now available online and folded into Old-House Journal’s wider coverage. Poore also created GARBAGE magazine (1989–1994), the first unaffiliated environmental consumer magazine.

Poore has participated, hands-on, in several restorations, including her own homes: a 1911 brownstone in Park Slope, Brooklyn, and a 1904 Tudor–Shingle Style house in Gloucester, Massachusetts, where she brought up her boys and their wonderful dogs.
