Born a British citizen, she took United States citizenship in 2005 after emigrating in 1984 to edit ''Vanity Fair''. Having been editor-in-chief of ''Tatler'' magazine at only 25 years of age, she rose to prominence in the American media industry as the editor of ''Vanity Fair'' from 1984 to 1992 and of ''The New Yorker'' from 1992 to 1998. In 2000 she was appointed a CBE (Commander of the Order of the British Empire) for her services to overseas journalism, and in 2007 was inducted into the Magazine Editors' Hall of Fame. As an editor, she has also been honored with four George Polk Awards, five Overseas Press Club awards, and ten National Magazine Awards.

Two years later, in November 2010, ''The Daily Beast'' merged with the American weekly news magazine ''Newsweek'' in a joint venture to form The Newsweek Daily Beast Company. In September 2013, Brown announced she would be leaving her position as editor-in-chief of ''The Daily Beast'' to launch ''Tina Brown Media'' 〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.thedailybeast.com/content/dam/dailybeast/2013/09/11/Tina-Brown-Live-Media-Release.pdf )〕 and pen ''Media Beast'', a memoir of her years in the media world, slated to be published in 2016.
==Early life==
Tina Brown was born in Maidenhead, England, and she and her elder brother, Christopher Hambley Brown (who became a movie producer) grew up in Little Marlow, in Buckinghamshire,〔 a Thames village in the countryside west of London. Her father, George Hambley Brown, was a prominent figure in the British film industry. He produced the first Agatha Christie films, starring Margaret Rutherford as Miss Marple. His other films included ''The Chiltern Hundreds'' (1949); ''Hotel Sahara'' (1951), starring Yvonne De Carlo; ''Guns at Batasi'' (1964), starring Richard Attenborough and Mia Farrow. In 1939, he had an early marriage to the actress Maureen O'Hara; according to O'Hara, it was never consummated, owing to her parents' intervention, and it was annulled. George later met and married Brown's mother, Bettina Iris Mary (Kohr), who was an assistant to Laurence Olivier. Brown's mother is part Iraqi, a fact Brown discovered in 2014 after appearing in Henry Louis Gates' Finding Your Roots She recounted, “She was dark and I never knew why.”〔http://www.nytimes.com/2014/09/18/fashion/finding-your-roots-on-pbs-premieres-season-2-at-moma.html?_r=0〕 In her later years, Bettina wrote for an English-language magazine for expatriates in Spain where she and her husband lived in retirement until moving to New York in the early eighties to be with their daughter and grandchildren.
