Circle Magazine was published from 1944 to 1948 by George Leite, initially with poet Bern Porter. Produced at Leite's Berkeley, California bookstore, daliel's (always a lowercase 'd'), it featured poetry, prose, criticism and art from many of those whose creative works and their successors would later come to called the San Francisco Renaissance. In addition to the magazine, Circle Editions published contemporary authors such as Albert Cossery and Henry Miller (a personal friend of Leite's).
