In an era when financial success is usually reserved for flamboyant showy media-hungry people, Kirk Kerkorian is an anomaly. Often considered a recluse who doesn’t publicize his personal successes, he has been one of the most influential and important American business men of the past fifty years.

Editor's Note

YEREVAN magazine was created five years ago with a noble goal - unification of Armenians spread all over the world. Therefore, our magazine exclusively covers what unifies our nation, turns it into a non-destructible monolith, and gives hope and strength to new generations. Armenian culture, history, science, art, achievements of our compatriots in Armenia and Diaspora - everything that makes us a proud nation.

Over the last few years, YEREVAN magazine became an original "capital-in-print" on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean. And now, we offer a "virtual capital" on line. This new interactive website allows you, our readers, to become part of our project, part of YEREVAN.

Such a unique congress of all Armenians on-line was unthinkable just 15-20 years ago. But thanks to the progress of technology, we can strengthen the image of the Armenia and Armenians for the rest of the world. So please register for free and let us share our thoughts and aspirations.
