Julia Masters

The Nashville Business Journal has hired Julia Masters to cover the entertainment industry, including restaurants, tourism and sports business.

Editor in chief Eric Snyder writes, “Julia Masters recently joined the newsroom from North Carolina, where she previously covered growth and development for the New Bern Sun Journal. And yes, as a University of North Carolina graduate, you can guess who she’ll be rooting for in March Madness.

“Julia covers the entertainment beat, which has to be one of the most fun reporting positions in Music City, covering tourism, sports business, the local restaurant scene and more.

“Her debut cover story, about Atlanta chef Ford Fry’s growing Nashville plate, is featured here.

“Be sure to track her coverage online at Nashville Business Journal, and in print every week on her reporter page, which debuts this week.”
