Margaret Trapp

Margaret Trapp, a managing editor at Bloomberg News, has retired from the organization after 31 years.

From a note from editor in chief John Micklethwait last week:

I’d would like to thank and congratulate Margaret Trapp, who will retire this month after 31 years at Bloomberg, two decades of which were spent in important roles in News. Margaret has contributed an enormous amount to the company, from her early days in positions in Tradebook, R&D and Sales, to her newsroom leadership on all matters data, her heroic efforts to build bridges across departments and her training on new functionality.
