Diane Harris, the editorial director of personal finance site Considerable, has left her position.
“I am so proud of the site we built and stories we’ve run — it’s been a great ride, fittingly ending in a surge of traffic for April,” she wrote on Twitter. The site is examining a new content strategy.
In addition, also departing are two full-time editors — deputy editor Katherine Lanpher, the former online features editor of Al Jazeera America among other roles, and executive editor Cybele Weisser, who was a former senior editor at Money — as well as part-time contributing editor Ellen Stark.
Harris, former editor in chief of Money magazine, helped start the personal finance site for consumers in their 50s and 60s a year ago.
Harris left Money magazine in February 2017. She joined Money in 1983 as writer, left in 1992 as a senior editor and rejoined the magazine as a top editor in 2005. She became its first female editor in chief in 2015.
In her two stints at the magazine she won a National Magazine Award for her coverage of the 1987 stock market crash, edited several award-winning series and features, and worked to develop extensions for the brand.
She has written monthly columns in Parenting and AARP magazine and is the co-author of a personal finance book for women, with Georgette Mosbacher, called “It Takes Money, Honey,” based on a feature Harris originally wrote for Money.
