Grand (stylized in all caps) is an American quarterly lifestyle magazine that publishes content related to grandparents and their families. It is based in Gulfport, Florida.[1]

History

Grand was founded in 2004 by Christine Crosby and her husband, Jonathan Micocci, after Crosby became a grandmother and could not find a magazine aimed at her new life stage.[2] Crosby had previously founded Delta Business Systems, Inc. and later established Family Journal Publications. The first issue of Grand was published in October 2004, with Billy Crystal on the cover.[3]

By 2006, Grand had reached a circulation of around 100,000 readers, roughly half of whom were paid subscribers.[4][5]

In 2009, the magazine transitioned from print to a digital-only format.[6]
