Lifestyle magazine Avenue has named Peter Davis its editor in chief. His first issue is the the September / October 2022 edition.

Previously, Davis was editor in chief of L'Officiel.

A Manhattan native, Davis has served as senior editor of Paper and features director of the Daily Front Row. In addition, he was the founder and editor in chief of Observer Media’s Scene magazine. 

But Davis appears to be looking beyond Manhattan. 

“I am excited to cover New York’s most fascinating people and the best city on the planet as well as Palm Beach, Florida and The Hamptons where NYC’s meritocracy migrate seasonally,” he states. 

Davis has also created content for such brands as Mac Cosmetics, Ralph Lauren, Douglas Elliman, FlyXO, 53W53/Above MoMa, Express, Shape House and Swipecast.

Avenue was acquired by real estate developer Charles S. Cohen in 2018 and relaunched in 2020. The bimonthly magazine has a circulation of 50,000.
