BRISBANE, CA and NEW YORK, NY—April 14, 2008—Glam Media, Inc., (www.GlamMedia.com), the category leader in women online, today announced that Matthew Schulte has joined the company as Vice President of Sales for the Eastern Region. Schulte previously led national sales for NBC Universal’s iVillage property. Schulte will oversee sales in the Eastern Region, based out of Glam Media’s New York City offices.
