GreenBiz’s Anderson joins Next City as editorial director

Nonprofit news outlet Next City has hired GreenBiz’s Deonna Anderson, who was once part of its Equitable Cities Fellowship, as editorial director.

“Joining Next City feels like a return home, as it was one of the first newsrooms where I reported as a professional journalist,” Anderson said.

Anderson joined from GreenBiz Group, where she was an associate editor and recently, as a senior editor. She reported on the business of environmental sustainability and the circular economy in relation to climate.

She worked freelance and was with outlets, including YES! Magazine, the New York Magazine and The Marshall Project.

Anderson has a bachelor’s degree from the University of California, Davis and a master’s degree from the Craig Newmark Graduate School of Journalism at CUNY.
