Last night, at Condé Nast’s annual publishers and executives conference, CEO Chuck Townsend and president Bob Sauerberg honored the key performances that contributed to the company’s incredibly successful year.

Six brands reached record profitability in 2013, catapulting the company to its best financial year since 2007: The New Yorker, Vanity Fair, Wired, Vogue, GQ and Allure.

Condé Nast Publisher of the Year - Pam Drucker Mann, vice president and publisher of Bon Appétit. Pam led Bon Appétit to an extraordinary year, finishing 2013 as Condé Nast’s number one brand in ad page growth, ad revenue growth, ad profit growth and ad profit margin growth. Named a Media Maven by Ad Age, Pam and Bon Appétit earned top industry accolades for their record results.
