The Dallas Business Journal has named Austin Business Journal managing editor Will Anderson its editor in chief.
Assistant managing editor Bill Hethcock writes, “Anderson has been the Austin Business Journal’s managing editor for the past five years, and prior to that spent three years as ABJ’s digital editor.
“‘Will has been a tremendous asset to Austin and he will be missed wide and far. We’ve launched a national search to fill his huge shoes,’ ABJ Editor Colin Pope said.
“Born in the Chicago area, Anderson grew up along the East Coast and moved to Texas in 2001. He is a 2011 University of Texas graduate with a bachelor’s degree in journalism. Anderson started his journalism career as a sports reporter, covering college football, basketball, Formula 1 racing and other events as a stringer for the Associated Press and Austin-area publications. At one point, Anderson worked as the managing editor of The Williamson County Sun, a 146-year-old community paper north of Austin in Georgetown.”
