Ray Schey has been named the new publisher of the Phoenix Business Journal.
Angela Gonzales of the paper writes, “He takes over for Don Henninger, who has retired as publisher after 17 years with the newspaper. Henninger had served as publisher since 2001, and as editor before that.
“‘I’m delighted to be in Phoenix and working here at the Phoenix Business Journal,’ Schey said. ‘There is such great history here, coming up on 35 years in 2015. The heritage and the success the Business Journal has had here in the community and what it’s represented to the business community is very admirable. I’m just thrilled to be part of it and, hopefully, to bring this to the next level.’
“Schey, 53, brings 27 years of sales and advertising experience to the Phoenix Business Journal, serving for the past year as advertising director of the Milwaukee Business Journal, a sister publication. Before that, he was in a similar position at the Rochester Business Journal in New York state.
“He has been tapped by executives at parent company American City Business Journals as a rising star, generating revenue at both of his previous publications during very challenging economic times.”
