Editorial Intern at AHS

**W*@aol.com**

This was passed on to me - just helping to get the word out:

>>Editorial Internship with National Magazine

Working on  the staff of American Horticultural Society’s official 
publication, The American  Gardener, an editorial intern will have the opportunity to 
experience first-hand  the inner workings of one of America’s longest-running 
and critically acclaimed  four-color national gardening magazines. Primary duties
 include researching and  writing short articles, proofreading and 
fact-checking, and coordinating author  and photographer submissions. 

As part of a broad-based exposure to  gardening and horticultural 
communication, the editorial intern will also  participate with other AHS interns in 
guided field trips to prominent local  gardens such as the U.S. National 
Arboretum, Dumbarton Oaks, and Mt. Vernon.  

Internships are available for three- to six-month periods. These periods  are 
roughly divided into winter/spring (January to May), summer (mid May through  
August), and fall (September through December), but may vary based on the  
schedules for individual interns. Interns are paid $9 per hour and work a  
37.5-hour week. Application deadlines are as follows: Winter/Spring (November  1); 
Summer (March 1); Fall (deadline extended to September 10, 2008).

To  receive an application form, or for further information about the 
internship,  send an e-mail request to editor@ahs.org or contact David J. Ellis at 
the  address listed above. An application form can also be downloaded from the 
AHS  Web site at _www.ahs.org_ (http://www.ahs.org) .<<
