David Allison

Atlanta Business Chronicle editor-in-chief David Allison will be leaving the Chronicle at the end of the year.

A story on its website states, “Allison has been with Atlanta Business Chronicle for 37 years, the last 22 years as Editor-in-Chief. The Chronicle has immediately started a national search for his successor.

“‘It goes without saying that Atlanta Business Chronicle would not be the organization it is today were it not for David’s contributions. His work ethic and dedication to this company are unparalleled, and my respect for him is unwavering,’ Rubinger told the Chronicle staff.

“On January 1, Senior Editors Doug Sams and Jessica Saunders will serve as interim Editors-in-Chief until a permanent editor is selected.”
