Ladies' Home Journal is an American
magazine published by the
Meredith Corporation. It first appeared on February 16, 1883, and eventually became one of the leading
women's magazines of the 20th century in the United States. It was the first American magazine to reach 1 million subscribers in 1903. On April 24, 2014, Meredith announced it would stop publishing the magazine as a monthly with the July issue, stating it was "transitioning
Ladies' Home Journal to a special interest publication". It will now be available quarterly on newsstands only, though its website remains in operation.
