Crain Communications publishes 30 weekly business and trade magazines including Advertising Age, Automotive News, Modern Healthcare, Investment News, Staffing Industry Analysis and Waste and Recycling News. It also publishes city business magazines for New York, Chicago, Cleveland and Detroit.
The company was founded in Louisville,
KY in 1916 by G.D. Crain, Jr. with a staff of three people and
two publications...first publishing Class (subsequently renamed
and published by the company today as BtoB) and Hospital Management
(a magazine for hospital administrators, which was sold during
the 1950s). The tiny staff moved to Chicago later in 1916. In
1930, Crain launched Advertising Age, which has become the international
newspaper of marketing and advertising and the company's flagship
publication.
The company remains a family affair with descendants Keith Crain as Chairman of the company and Rance Crain as President. Mary Kay Crain is Treasurer.
