Most recently, Mr. Carey led the print/digital startup of Condé Nast Portfolio and Portfolio.com, which debuted in 2007, and consistently generated headlines worldwide until its closure in 2009.

Previously, Mr. Carey was the Vice President and Publisher of The New Yorker. Under his leadership, The New Yorker staged a remarkable turnaround as a business. The magazine's total circulation broke the million mark for the first time, the subscriber renewal rates reached an industry high of more than 80%, and advertising revenues more than doubled. As a result, in 2002, The New Yorker posted its first profit in nearly two decades.

In addition to the development of Condé Nast Portfolio and Portfolio.com, Mr. Carey has led two other media launches. He was founding publisher of SmartMoney, a joint venture between The Wall Street Journal and The Hearst Corporation. Under his direction, SmartMoney reached profitability in just two years, and was named by Advertising Age as "Magazine of the Year." And at Condé Nast, he served as the Publisher for the re-launch of House & Garden in 1996.

Mr. Carey was named by AdWeek as the industry's "executive of the year", and was selected by Folio as a member of its "Dream Team" of publishing executives. He has also received the Hall of Achievement award from the American Advertising Federation. In 2010, MIN inducted Mr. Carey into their industry Hall of Fame.

Mr. Carey is a member of the Board of Directors of Next Issue Media, the recently-formed industry consortium, serves on the Executive Committee of the American Advertising Federation, and is a board member of the Magazine Publishers of America. He is also a board member of the Young Presidents' Organization and a member of the CUNY Graduate School of Journalism Advisory Committee.

David Carey is a graduate of UCLA, grew up in the Los Angeles area, and now lives in Westchester with his family.
