Over 22 years, Austin Woman has published 264 magazines. In the company of women, Melinda Garvey was inspired to start a women’s publication in Austin, TX. In September 2002, Austin Woman launched its first issue with Amy Miller of Amy’s Ice Cream on the cover. Since, Austin Woman has grown beyond a physical publication and into a community of women professionals, entrepreneurs, aspiring leaders and many others.

Two years ago, Austin Woman expanded its ownership. Just like Garvey accomplished in 2002, she wanted Austin Woman to continue reflecting the community of women living in Austin and its surrounding areas. So, Garvey opened up the ownership of Austin Woman to a diverse group of women, equally committed to keeping the voice for women alive in Austin. This opportunity positioned Austin Woman to have diversity, equity and inclusion not only seen at events or in the magazine, but in the ownership structure. Austin Woman is currently owned by 8 women who each come from different walks of life.
