Life Magazine set for revival by Karlie Kloss and husband’s media company

Magazine known for photography of major 20th century events ceased print publication in 2007.

Life magazine, the American magazine known for its iconic photography capturing major events of the 20th century, is set to be revived under a deal struck by fashion model Karlie Kloss’s media company.

Bedford Media, which Kloss owns with her venture capitalist husband Joshua Kushner, said in a statement on Thursday that the magazine would be relaunched in print and digital form after it secured publishing rights in an agreement with Dotdash Meredith.

The financial details of the deal and the relaunch date were not immediately disclosed.

“Josh and I are honored to continue @LIFE’s legacy ❤,” Kloss said on Instagram.
