The biggest departure is editor in chief Nicholas Jackson, who had returned about a year ago and was also Atlas Obscura’s first editor in chief back in 2010 before leaving for jobs at places such as The Atlantic and Pacific Standard.
“Over the past year, we reimagined the editorial strategy from the ground up,” wrote Jackson on LinkedIn. “We launched new franchises, rebuilt operations, created some impressive (and profitable) programs for both our brand partners and our audience, and drove real results.”
Senior editor Hal Koss also announced his departure. “I joined last year to lead its places desk and help rethink its core product, the Atlas itself,” wrote Koss on LinkedIn. “The company is moving in a new direction, and now, so am I.”
Diana Hubbell, an associate editor, also announced she was leaving. “Winning a James Beard Award and then leaving the company that has been my home for four years less than a week later was certainly not on my 2025 bingo, but we are living in strange times,” she wrote on LinkedIn.
