New York, NY (PRWEB) July 16, 2007 -- Gearing up for its second successful year, Sherman?s Travel magazine (www.shermanstravel.com/magazine) today announced that it has appointed veteran magazine publisher Ernie Renzulli as its new publisher.

Renzulli, 58, comes to the magazine with extensive experience in the luxury magazine market, including serving as publisher of Robb Report, Golf Illustrated, Golf Magazine and Absolute New York. He succeeds publisher Alan Stiles, who led the magazine?s launch last year and who will continue to serve as consultant to the magazine.

Launched in fall 2006, Sherman?s Travel is the first travel magazine targeting sophisticated travelers who are value conscious. It is published by ShermansTravel Media LLC, the creator of ShermansTravel.com, the web?s leading source for travel deals and destination advice.

One of the few magazines to be successfully spun-off from an online media company, Sherman?s Travel has built its 200,000 circulation exclusively via an innovative email marketing model. The magazine?s unique integrated marketing program has also attracted a diverse list of advertisers in its first year, including American Airlines Vacations, Fairmont Hotels and Resorts, Norwegian Cruise Lines, Sandals Resort, Tourneau, Travelocity, the upscale airline Maxjet, Iceland Air, and Elite Island Resorts.

Most recently, Renzulli spearheaded the launch of Absolute New York, a high-end title for the New York metro market. From 2001 to 2004, he was vice president and publisher of the luxury lifestyle magazine Robb Report, which he helped reposition under new ownership.

As vice president and publisher of Golf Illustrated magazine, Renzulli was named to Adweek?s ?Hot Ten? list for three consecutive years. Earlier in his career, he held management positions at Playboy, CBS Magazines, and Triangle Publishing.

"With his 30 years in the publishing industry and excellent relationships in the luxury market, Ernie is the right person to lead our sales efforts and expand our audience,? said James H. Sherman, founder and CEO of ShermansTravel Media. ?This has been an exciting first year for the magazine and we?re confident Ernie has the expertise and vision to take the magazine to new heights.?

A graduate of Fairleigh Dickinson University MBA Program, Renzulli resides in Bloomfield, NJ.
