Myrna Beth Haskell
Founder & Executive Editor
MYRNA has worked in a variety of roles in the publishing industry, including editor, feature writer, self-syndicated columnist, author and speaker. Her features have appeared in Better Homes and Gardens, PARENTS Magazine, American Fitness, and many other publications across the United States as well as internationally. Myrna has also been a columnist and regular contributing writer for numerous publications. She is the author of LIONS and TIGERS and TEENS: Expert advice and support for the conscientious parent just like you (Unlimited Publishing, LLC). Awards include a Parenting Media Association (PMA) Bronze Award in the category of "News Feature" (2018), winner in the "50 Great Writers You Should be Reading" contest sponsored by The Authors Show (2013), and inclusion in the 2024 Who's Who in America for Publishing & Journalism.
Myrna was elected to the National Association of Women Artist's Board of Directors in June 2021. Founded in 1889, this is the first women's fine arts association in the United States, which continues to support and promote women artists, honoring their important contributions to the history of American culture and art.
She has been a keynote speaker for various nonprofit conferences supporting women, parents and education, discussing issues such as leadership, volunteerism, parent involvement in community schools and best business practices. Myrna has spent many years volunteering in her local community. She enjoys traveling with her husband and spending time with her grown children whenever the opportunity arises.
Statement: Working with others on a publication where your team members’ sense of vision, direction and purpose are completely in tune with yours is extremely rare. The working relationship and positive environment at SANCTUARY is definitely something special, and I couldn’t be more proud of the result. SANCTUARY is a place where women can feel empowered by others' journeys and successes, find inspiration and learn about important health and financial topics; but they can also become part of an online community where their voice and stories are heard. I look forward to a fabulous future with the magazine.
