Sarah Jane Weaver
Longtime journalist and editor Sarah Jane Weaver has been named editor of the Deseret News, becoming the first female editor of the 174-year-old newspaper.
A Deseret News story states, “Weaver, who will transition from her current position as Executive Editor of Church News, replaces Hal Boyd, who earlier this month accepted a position as chief of staff at Brigham Young University. Boyd will maintain his position as Executive Editor of Deseret Magazine.
“Weaver becomes the first female editor of the Deseret News since its founding in June 1850.
“She was appointed the top editor of Church News in 2017, expanding its reach and influence to Latter-day Saints more than tenfold. She also began translation of its content into Spanish and Portuguese, established a video team, and led podcasting efforts.”
