PROFILE |
 |
Snubbed by advertisers when he founded his company 60 years ago, John Johnson has pushed his magazine company to the front of the pack. Led by its flagship publication, "Ebony," family-owned Johnson Publishing Company is the largest black-owned publishing firm in the country. It also publishes "Jet" and operates a book division. Off the printed page, Johnson Publishing markets the Fashion Fair cosmetics line and hosts the Ebony Fashion Fair, a benefit fashion show that visits cities in the US and Canada each year. Chairman and CEO John Johnson, who founded the firm in 1942, has turned over most of the day-to-day operations to daughter Linda Johnson Rice (president and COO).
