New York Times: Frank Zachary, a celebrated magazine editor and art director who pioneered graphic innovations and creative photography while chronicling postwar America’s fascination with travel and leisure and the affluent society, died on Friday at his home in East Hampton, N.Y. He was 101. Zachary was remembered by former colleagues as one of the last great editors and art directors from a golden age of magazines. He was perhaps best known in publishing circles as the editor, from 1972 to 1991, who saved Town & Country, the venerable Hearst magazine that had chronicled high society since 1846.
