Editor in Chief

Stephanie Maxwell Newton

Stephanie was thrilled for the opportunity to combine her passions for design, storytelling, and her home state when she joined the At Home in Arkansas team as editor in 2017. After graduating from college in Mississippi and graduate school in London, Stephanie moved back to Little Rock to begin a career in writing and editing that has spanned industries—but her favorite subjects have always been local creatives. When not on a deadline, you can find her flipping through a growing stack of magazines, poking around flea markets and estate sales, and enjoying Hillcrest with her husband, Patrick, and their two daughters.
