But in 2007, the Internet changed the dynamic, and BVM's announced November 2007 closure of DA follows that--by other publishers--of Ellegirl, Nick Jr, and Teen People. Disney will remain in "kids" print with SIPs (special-interest publications ) Disney Fairies, Disney Pirates, Disney Princess and Power Rangers, and if High School Musical is the smash that everyone predicts, it will have an SIP, too.Notable DA alumni... Founding publisher Lynn Lehmkuhl (now at Newspaper National Network), and early-1990s successor Nina Lawrence (now W publisher). COMMENTS
