About Goodie

From a Times Square building in late 1999, Foxy Kidd started publishing Goodie Magazine to celebrate authenticity and originality in whatever manifestation those qualities appear. A small, handmade publication dedicated to preserving an endangered history through the stories of its subjects, it was produced entirely on money it earned for itself. With the help of generous donations from readers, Panther Books began in 2001. A natural accompaniment to the magazine, Panther was initially created to publish works by Goodie Magazine subjects.

While new issues and books are no longer being published as of 2014, back issues of Goodie and back stock of Panther Books are still available through the Shop.

This web site is a collaborative effort on the parts of Pussycat and Bark, who gave their time and talent from the start, designer and artist Michele Burgevin and producer and hostess Kris Britt of silente. Micaela Porta and Erin Kalagassy aka Bunny are greatly appreciated for their invaluable voluntary editorial assistance. Thanks!
