Fortune’s Lev-Ram is departing

Michal Lev-Ram

Fortune editor-at-large Michal Lev-Ram is leaving the news organization but will still be involved in the Most Powerful Women Summit.

She will also be a contributing writer.

“I am forever indebted to Fortune and to the people, both past and present, who have made it so much more than a job for me, and I am thrilled to still play a role in this storied brand’s future,” she wrote on LinkedIn. “I’m also excited to dive into some new projects, and to see where this next phase of my career takes me.”

Lev-Ram was also editorial director for live media. As editor-at-large, she worked across the conference and editorial teams.

She is known for her deep-dive stories on the technology and entertainment industries, like her profile of Salesforce founder Marc Benioff in a Fortune 500 package. Prior to joining Fortune in 2010, Lev-Ram was a staff writer at Business 2.0, a former Time Inc. publication that covered startups.

She has also written articles for CNNMoney, Fast Company, and Popular Science — and for Fortune from 2007-2008. Born in Israel and based in Silicon Valley, Lev-Ram holds a degree in journalism from San Francisco State University.
