Dan Miller has been named the new editor-in-chief of AVN magazine, effective immediately. Miller has been on the AVN editorial staff since August of 2001, starting out as an associate editor for AVN.com, where he led the website’s coverage of 9-11.
"I am excited about the future of AVN with Dan at the helm,” AVN President Paul Fishbein said. “I know that he will carry on the excellent standard that our previous Editor-in-Chief, Mike Ramone, set over the past six years.
“I am thrilled at the prospect at working with Dan and our incredible AVN editorial staff to make the magazine an even better product in 2007."
"This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and I'm looking forward to all of the challenges that it presents," Miller said. "I have wanted to become the Editor-in-Chief of a major publication since I started my journalism career, and AVN has been the pre-eminent trade magazine in the adult entertainment industry for the past 24 years. Now, my goal is to make it better than it's ever been.
“I appreciate Paul Fishbein for having the confidence in me to allow me to do this. I'm excited about the possibilities and I'm ready to go."
Miller was raised in Pittsburgh, and graduated from Arizona State University with a degree in Journalism. He has been a professional journalist for the past 11 years, including five-and-a-half years as a sportswriter for the East Valley Tribune in Mesa, Arizona. Prior to coming to AVN, Miller was a sportswriter for the San Gabriel Valley Tribune in West Covina, Calif., and managing editor of the Van Nuys Aviation and Business Journal.
Miller was most recently editor-in-chief of AVN.com, a position in which he’ll remain.
