History
Candid was created in May 2006 by Lisa Gu, Amber Makhani, Helen Wang, and Kae Wang. Working through summer break, the four high school students assembled the first issue of the magazine. With the help of Mandy Grewal and other students, editors sold advertisements and conducted fundraisers to cover the $5,000 cost of printing 5,000 copies.
For its second and subsequent issues, Candid expanded staff to include reporters, school representatives, graphics designers, and advertising representatives.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“In the history of the human mind, these glowing and ruddy fables precede the noonday thoughts of men, as Aurora the sun’s rays. The matutine intellect of the poet, keeping in advance of the glare of philosophy, always dwells in this auroral atmosphere.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“This is the greatest week in the history of the world since the Creation, because as a result of what happened in this week, the world is bigger, infinitely.”
—Richard M. Nixon (1913–1995)
“I cannot be much pleased without an appearance of truth; at least of possibility—I wish the history to be natural though the sentiments are refined; and the characters to be probable, though their behaviour is excelling.”
—Frances Burney (1752–1840)
