Kelly October 17, 2006 http://www.nypost.com/seven/10172006/business/ truman_leaves_art_mag_business_keith_j__kelly.htm Ex-Cond? Nast Editorial Director James Truman stepped down as CEO of LTB Media - home to the new Culture & Travel magazine - amid signs of behind-the-scenes tension with the company's wealthy founder, Louise T. Blouin MacBain. Late last week, after only a year on the job, Truman flew to Blouin MacBain's mansion in London to personally deliver his resignation. Stunned staffers learned of the sudden twist yesterday morning, when Truman returned to New York and began telling staffers. MORE ONLINE 2. WWD Memo Pad By Irin Carmon, Jacob Bernstein, and Amy Wicks October 17, 2006 http://wwd.com/search/article/110003?query=memo+pad UP FOR AUCTION: Among the handful of boldfaced names at the opening party of the Louise T. Blouin Institute in West London on Thursday, the one that was to be the beacon of millionaire art collector Louise T. MacBain's publishing mini empire was notably absent. As everyone knew by Monday, James Truman, formerly the editorial director of Cond? Nast, whom MacBain lured out of hibernation to run her stable of art magazines, wasn't there because he had quit. It was not the first time. Just two weeks after Truman joined LTB Media to oversee magazines such as Art + Auction and Modern Painters, as well as to launch Culture & Travel, he attempted to resign, but was persuaded by MacBain to stay. ENOUGH PRADA TO GO AROUND?: "Ugly Betty" is sitting pretty over at ABC. After the show enjoyed an average of 14.8 million viewers making it the most-watched new series this season, the network on Monday ordered up nine more episodes, bringing the total order to 22 for a full season. But clearly TV is in love with fashion these days. Perhaps taking a cue from ABC's success, Fox TV Studios has acquired the television rights to "The Devil Wears Prada" (its parent film studio bought the movie rights) and is working with Robin Schiff who penned "Romy and Michele's High School Reunion" as the writer and producer for the show. But in TV land, getting a project from script to pilot is a lengthy process, not to mention the fact that the movie's buzz may be long gone by the time the show hits the small screen which likely wouldn't happen until late next year. "There are no guarantees that it will come together, but in my opinion, I think it has a good shot," said a Fox TV Studios spokeswoman. MORE ONLINE 3.
