History[edit]
High Society was first published in May 1976. Carl Ruderman hired the adult industry's first female men's magazine editor, Gloria Leonard, in 1977.[3]
Leonard, an adult film star, is credited with the use of '900' and '976 phone numbers' to advertise upcoming magazine issues. This evolved into the very first 'phone sex' lines.[3]
In November 1981 a spin-off magazine, High Society Live!, debuted. Another venture was a celebrity focused publication, Celebrity Skin magazine, in 1986. The 10th Anniversary Issue of High Society, published May, 1986 featured Gail Thackray (Gail Harris) with a 10-page spread, Centerfold and Front cover.[4] Over its 25-year run Margot Kidder, Ann-Margret and Barbra Streisand unsuccessfully attempted to sue the magazine after it published nude photos of them.[5]
High Society has a Pay Per View channel.[6]
The magazine is published by the Magna Publishing Group,[1] which was acquired by 1-800-PHONESEX on December 22, 2015.[7]
