Edward Tsumele Arts journalist for, among other, The Sowetan and later ran [[CityLife]].

From 2010 to 2012 he also wrote for the Johannesburg based arts magazine CityLife, run by Edward Tsumele.

After 14 years in mainstream media, arts journalist Edward Tsumele has been appointed as publishing editor of the arts and entertainment monthly magazine CityLife, as from the beginning of July 2012. The focus of the two year old magazine is in the area of visual art, theatre, dance, literature, film and television, music and lifestyle.

Tsumele, who resigned from Sowetan at the end of June, has a post graduate honours degree in Journalism and Media Studies from the University of the Witwatersrand and is currently studying for a Bachelor of Philosophy Honours in Marketing Management at the Institute of Marketing Management (IMM).

His association with Sowetan dates back to 1998, when he started writing for the newspaper soon after training as a journalist at Pretoria Technikon (now Tshwane University of Technology). He was mentored by the late veteran entertainment journalist Elliot 'Bra E" Makhaya, who for a long time was entertainment editor at Sowetan. After a few shifts in the corporate sector, he rejoined Sowetan in November 2006 where he has spent nearly six years as a senior arts and entertainment writer.

As a dedicated arts writer, specialising in a wide range of arts writing, ranging from theatre criticism, writing features on SA film, dance, television, music, radio, and literature, his work has appeared in such publications as the Sunday Independent, City Press, New African and New Africa Analysis (both based in London). He has been interviewed on both radio and television on SA arts and entertainment issues, including on SABC1, e.tv, SAFM, Radio 2000 and Metro FM.

He was nominated as a finalist for the 2007 Arts Correspondent of the Year Category by the Arts and Culture Trust (Act), currently sits on the board of the South African Arts Writers and Critics' Association (SAAWCA), whose mandate among others, is to improve the level of arts writing and criticism among arts journalists and mentors up-and coming journalists who wish to pursue a career as arts writers.
