USC Annenberg plans to announce tomorrow that Kit Rachlis, the former editor of Los Angeles magazine, will be a Senior Fellow at the Center on Communication Leadership and Policy. As a Senior Fellow, "he will help lead a series of discussions and projects in the area of 'Arts, Politics & Society.'" Rachlis stepped down recently after nine years as editor of the magazine. "He has an important perspective on the unique challenges and opportunities facing Los Angeles, particularly those stemming from our role as a leading cultural center," says Geoffrey Cowan, dean emeritus of the USC Annenberg School and director of the Center on Communication Leadership and Policy.
