Maxim VP and Publisher of Two Years Kevin Martinez Quietly Left The Troubled Magazine on January 29

It was two years ago when a lot of excitement hovered over Maxim magazine and its new owner Sardar Biglari. Sure the new owner was also the owner of a steak restaurant chain but there was hope for Maxim. Sardar Biglari was hiring some pretty big guns to come in to run his magazine. He brought in Kate Lanphear  to lead the editorial charge as well as a makeover. Ms. Lanphear has since been ushered out.  He then brought in Details magazine publisher Kevin Martinez hooked by a sweet annual salary to lead the business side as VP and Publisher. Mr. Martinez was so sure about Maxim that he even raided his old company Conde Nast to build his new team at Maxim. But after just two years, a failed relaunch of the magazine and an owner who keeps stirring the pot to the point of appointing himself editor in chief, Kevin Martinez had enough and quietly left the company on January 29.
