North Bay Business Journal editor Borders departs

Anthony Borders

Anthony Borders, the editor in chief of the North Bay Business Journal, is leaving after seven years.

Susan Wood writes, “Allison Gibson, The Press Democrat’s senior editor of multimedia and innovation, becomes the business journal’s interim editor. Gibson, a 30-year journalism veteran, served as news director for NBC-television affiliate KWWL in Waterloo, Iowa, prior to joining the SMI team in 2021.

“‘We’re all going to miss Anthony, and I wish him great success moving forward. I’m incredibly excited about leading the award-winning staff on an interim basis,’ Gibson said.

“Borders affectionately looks back at his time with NBBJ, unable to put his finger on any one memory that stands out over others.”
