David Atlanta magazine is an Atlanta-based weekly periodical written for the gay community. It was owned by gay press publisher Window Media, a subsidiary of Avalon Equity Partners until Window Media went bankrupt, and ceased publication on November 16, 2009.

On March 11, 2010, David Atlanta returned to publishing weekly issues after being purchased from the bankruptcy court by Gaydar Atlanta.

History

Founded in October of 1998, David was brought to Atlanta to serve as an entertainment and lifestyle magazine for the Southeastern United States. It was the part of a line of gay magazines dating back to 1968, begining in Florida. The magazine was named after the Michaelangelo statue.

In 2003 the publication was bought by United Media, publisher of the Southern Voice in Atlanta, and the Washington Blade in Washington, D.C. David was merged into Window Media in 2005.

On February 25, 2010, David, along with Southern Voice, were acquired by Gaydar Atlanta. Gaydar magazine was replaced by David Atlanta on March 11, 2010.
