Life has been the name of two notable magazines published in the United States.

1 LIFE, the photojournalism magazine

The best known is LIFE, the photojournalism magazine founded by Henry Luce in 1936 and owned by Time Warner. Its first issue was dated November 23.

LIFE was published weekly until 1972, fortnightly from 1972 to 1978, and was restarted as a monthly magazine in October, 1978. A weekly Life in Time of War was published for a month or two during the first Gulf War. Monthly publication ceased in 2000.

LIFE's original mission was "to see life; see the world." The magazine has published some of the most iconic images of events in the United States and the world.
