AP names Keller to its markets team

Associated Press business editor Lisa Gibbs sent out the following announcement on Tuesday:

Everyone, I’m happy to announce that Greg Keller will be joining our department coming to work on the Markets team in New York City.

The move marks Greg’s return to full-time business news. Greg has been with the AP since 2008 in Paris, where he covered all the big stories from the European financial crisis to the Paris attacks. But before that, he spent seven years at Dow Jones based in Paris and five years as a reporter for the Warsaw Business Journal covering the business world and post-Communist transition there. While at AP, Greg also gained experience editing on various desks (Europe and Africa) and filled in for the traveling bureau chief in Kabul.

This diverse and global perspective will surely be an asset on the Markets team. In addition to developing smart enterprise, Greg will help out with editing and take a major role in coordinating the Money & Markets product.

As I write this, Greg is dealing with movers and working on saying goodbye to the City of Light. We hope to see him in NYC some time the first week of March.
