Maria Maccari was born in Milan, earned her degree in Italian Literature, specializing in History of Costume and Fashion, and then got a Master’s degree in New Technologies. She began a career in journalism almost by chance, working briefly for Mondadori Publishers and then becoming a web editor for Condé Nast, specializing in beauty and well-being. She has also contributed to the creation of such sites as iosposa.it, style.it, and vanityfair.it. Ms. Maccari is now planning to launch a glamour beauty portal.
