The glossy pages
of Angle
magazine are impressive in their own right, but I was astonished to
discover that the magazine's staff consists of just two people.
Since the publication's inception in 2003, editor/director Amy
Bracken Sparks has kept the bimonthly nonprofit 'journal of arts +
culture' afloat with vibrant colors, wise writing, and fantastic
photography. The magazine specializes in reviews of any kind --
theater, film, music -- and never loses sight of its Cleveland
beat. Recently deceased photographer Lauren Bugaj, whose work
graced Angle's first 'Portfolio' page, is featured on the
cover of issue 30. Writer Douglas Max Utter mourns her death in a
way that only a local could: with passion, beauty, and personal
experience -- three of the key components that make Angle
work. -- Mary O'Regan

Prison Legal News (PLN) is
'dedicated to protecting the human rights' of all those involved in
the prison system, from guards to lawyers to inmates. Reporting on
detention centers throughout the country, the publication explores
topics such as violence, healthcare, and overcrowding. Michael
Rigby, a former prisoner in Texas who was released in December
after 13 years behind bars, wrote the February cover story about
brutality and violence in Maryland prisons. Firsthand perspectives
such as his are what make PLN an important and informed
publication about the taboo world of life behind bars. -- Mary
