David Katz, the executive editor at The Hollywood Reporter who has shepherded some of its key longform narratives, investigative work and cover stories, has been named the outlet’s chief content officer.

In his new role, Katz, who reports to editorial director Nekesa Mumbi Moody, will work with THR’s top editors to elevate its storytelling across platforms, marshal resources towards key stories and, with Moody and deputy editorial director Jeanie Pyun, help develop new initiatives that further the brand.

“At this crucial moment for Hollywood and the media that covers it, I’m excited to build on what we’ve already accomplished at THR and work with our incredible team to push, explore and grow,” said Katz.

Katz joined THR in 2017. Previously, he served as articles editor for Esquire magazine in New York and has worked at Vanity Fair and Time Out. He has written features and cover profiles for GQ, Esquire, Men’s Journal and Food & Wine, among many others.
