The Satinsky Archive: Derk Sauer

Derk Sauer is a Dutch-born publisher who became one of the founders of independent media in post-Soviet Russia. He moved to Moscow in 1988 as editor of the joint venture Moscow Magazine, the first glossy magazine for foreigners in the USSR. In 1992 after the dissolution of the Soviet Union, he founded Moscow Times as one of the first independent English language news outlets. In 1994, he and his wife Ellen launched the Russian version of Cosmopolitan, under license from the Hearst Corporation, with Ellen as the editor-in-chief. The magazine quickly became the most popular publication for young Russian women and pioneered the advertising industry. By 1997, the Sauers had launched Russian licensed versions of Harper’s Bazaar, Good Housekeeping, Playboy, and Men’s Health. Then in 1999, Sauer launched the first independent Russian language business newspaper, Vedomosti, as a joint venture with Financial Times and New York Times. Vedomosti became the newspaper of record for Russian business until the Russian government began to impose limits foreign ownership and reassert its control over Russian media.
