Mike Hendricks, the retiring editor of the Albany Business Review, writes about his successor.
Hendricks writes, “The big news is that Melissa Mangini will be taking over responsibility of the newsroom as the editor-in-chief starting in the new year, when I retire from this job that I have truly loved the past 18 years.
“As managing editor, Melissa has essentially been the newsroom’s chief operating office the past three years, working every day with every reporter and overseeing the weekly newspaper.
“Melissa deserves a lot of the credit for the success of the Business Review’s newsroom since she joined us seven years ago and she is ideally suited for the challenges of taking the Business Review newsroom into the future. She knows the digital world, she knows journalism, and she knows our audience.”
