While many recognize Carolyn Nored Miller for her evocative landscape and portrait photography in Fort Davis, fewer may know that she also operates a successful media business in San Angelo. Carolyn’s venture, San Angelo Family Magazine, co-owned with her daughter Kyla Bassett, has become a pivotal part of the Concho Valley’s cultural fabric since its inception in 1995.
A Passion for Publishing and Community Carolyn started San Angelo Family Magazine after a lengthy career in a large corporation, driven by a desire to spend more time with her family and to celebrate the rich tapestry of life in San Angelo and the surrounding areas. The magazine consolidates local events, culture, and news into a monthly publication that has become indispensable for many residents.
San Angelo Family Magazine: A Hub of Local Culture The November issue of San Angelo Family Magazine is particularly noteworthy. It reflects the publication’s commitment to community support and enrichment with features like Operation Paperback, which sends books to military members and their families, and listings of local scholarships. The issue also highlights local events such as a Greek bake sale, 50 Good Deeds initiatives, and the Home Away from Home event supporting service members at Goodfellow AFB.
Digital and Community Engagement Carolyn’s enthusiasm for her magazine is palpable. “I am SO proud of this magazine!!” she recently shared on social media, celebrating the magazine’s role in bringing together diverse community elements. The publication also fosters engagement through its digital presence, where readers can access content online if they can’t pick up a physical copy.
Join the Celebration of Military Family Month This month, as the magazine celebrates Military Family Month, it extends an invitation to readers to explore how the community supports its service members through various initiatives and stories. These activities are part of Carolyn’s broader goal to use her media platform to give back to the community that supports her business.
