James Dietzler Joins Hemmings Motor News as Associate Editor

    BENNINGTON, Vt., Aug. 23 James A. Dietzler, automotive
photojournalist and radio news reporter, has joined the staff of Hemming Motor
News as associate editor.
    Dietzler, who was editor of Mustang Illustrated magazine at PriMedia
Publications in New Jersey, joins the Hemmings staff to work on the lead
magazine, Hemmings Motor News, as well as Special Interest Autos, Hemming Rods
& Performance, the 14 Hemmings automotive calendars, and special book
projects.
    A 1991 graduate of Pennsylvania's Kutztown University with a degree in
professional writing, Dietzler also worked as a news anchor and production
staffer for WRNJ-AM/FM radio in Hackettstown, NJ.
    "We now have twice as many editorial products we did just a year ago, with
the addition of Hemmings Rods & Performance, our new book series, and an
expanded calendar line," said Terry Ehrich, Hemmings' editor and publisher,
and, with the addition of a top rate editor like Jim joining our staff, we'll
be able to keep the quality and increase quantity of collector car materials
published by Hemmings Motor News as we grow."
    Since 1954, Hemmings Motor News has served the collector-car hobby as its
primary trading place and currently carries over 800 pages of hobby
advertising each month to a paid circulation of nearly 260,000 and readership
over 500,000.  Loaded with tens of thousands of classified and display ads for
collector cars, trucks and motorcycles, parts and services, clubs and events,
and other hard-to-find resources for the hobbyist, Hemmings has become
indispensable to the collector car enthusiast.
    Along with the monthly Hemmings Motor News and bi-monthly Special Interest
Autos, the company also publishes the Hemmings' Vintage Auto Almanac, the
world's most complete directory for the collector-car hobby and industry, as
well as the new bi-monthly Hemmings Rods & Performance for the street rod,
performance and motorsports audiences.  Hemmings also offers a complete line
of ancillary products, which includes an extensive line of die-cast models,
calendars, books and clothing, all available by phone or online.
