It has been published continuously since its first issue in 1888, nine months after the Society itself was founded. It primarily contains articles about geography, history, and world culture. The magazine is known for its extensive use of dramatic photographs. The magazine is published monthly, and additional map supplements are also included with subscriptions. On occasion, special editions of the magazine are issued. The first issue of National Geographic Magazine was published on September 22, 1888, nine months after the Society was founded. Starting with its January 1905 publication of several full-page pictures of Tibet in 1900-1901, the magazine changed from being a text-oriented publication closer to a scientific journal to featuring extensive pictorial content, and became well known for this style. John Hyde was the first editor.This issue includes: The Coming Revolution in Transportation by Frederic C. Appel and Dean Conger; Florida's Manatees, Mermaids in Peril by Daniel S. Hartman and James A. Sugar; The Friendly Irish by John Scofield and James A. Sugar; Lonely Cape Hatteras, Besieged by the Sea by William S. Ellis and Emory Kristof; and Okinawa, The Island Without a Country by Jules B. Billard and Winfield Parks.Dean Conger after nine years with the Denver Post, joined the National Geographic Society as a staff photographer in 1959. His assignments took him all over Europe and Asia as well as across the United States. Conger made more than 30 trips to what was then the Soviet Union, photographing for National Geographic magazine and for the National Geographic book Journey Across Russia. That effort won him a citation of excellence from the Overseas Press Club and the World Understanding Award from the University of Missouri in partnership with the National Press Photographers Association (NPPA) and Nikon. Named Newspaper Photographer of the Year three times during the 1950s and Magazine Photographer of the Year in the 1962 Pictures of the Year competition, Conger also received the NPPA Joseph A. Sprague Memorial Award in 1987 for a lifetime of outstanding work in photojournalism. He served in the National Geographic's Photography Division, later directing its Audiovisual Services Division. James Sugar joined National Geographic in 1967 as a summer intern. Two years later he joined as a full-time contract photographer, and he worked for the National Geographic Society until 1992. In that time, Sugar photographed dozens of stories for National Geographic magazine. Sugar worked on more than 20 stories for National Geographic. His published works cover a range of topics, including Iceland, Ireland, manatees, sea stars, truck drivers, the Balearic Islands, the San Francisco earthquake, and Halley's comet. Sugar worked on several National Geographic books, including Railroads: The Great American Adventure, America's Sunset Coast, Secret Corners of the World, Alaska's Magnificent Parklands, Canada's Incredible Coasts, Mysteries of Mankind, and Our Changing Earth.A pioneer of innovative, high-tech underwater photography using robot cameras and remotely operated vehicles, Emory Kristof has been a National Geographic photographer since beginning as an intern for the magazine in 1963. Kristof created the preliminary designs of the electronic camera system for the Argo vehicle, which found the Titanic. He led photographic surveys of the C.S.S. Alabama in 1992 and the 16th-century wreck San Diego in the Philippines in 1993. In 1995, he led an expedition to recover the bell of the Edmund Fitzgerald and produced the first deep-water images with high-definition TV. Kristof's "Testing the Waters of Rongelap," published in National Geographic magazine in April 1998, recorded oceanic life in the nuclear weapons-contaminated waters surrounding the Marshall Islands. In August 1998, Kristof's pictures of the Titanic were presented in the National Geographic article "Tragedy in Three Dimensions." The pictures, recorded in 1991 using high-intensity lighting systems, appeared in unprecedented detail because of advances in 3-D computer video-editing. National Geographic staff photographer from 1964 to 1994, he has produced forty-some articles for the magazine. In 2001 Kristof was named a contributing photographer-in-residence at the National Geographic Society.Jules B. Billard was a Senior Editor of the National Geographic.
