Steven Gregor is the creator of Gym Class magazine, the publication all about mag-making and the people who create them. As designer and editor, one-man-band Steven sources all the content that goes into the mag and last month saw the launch of the Gym Class’ 13th issue, the fastest selling issue yet.
