University of Baltimore freshman Evelyn Atieno, whose online magazine, Affinity, is finding a receptive audience of young people who are interested in social issues, recently was profiled in The Baltimore Sun.
"A longtime reader of Seventeen magazine, Atieno decided the best way to present her photography, design and interviews with friends was by using a similar format," the Sun writes.
