Bloomberg Industry hires Borak to cover tax

Bloomberg Industry Group has hired Donna Borak to cover tax issues in New York and New Jersey.

While at The Journal, Borak also focused on Congress and the 2016 presidential election. Previously, she was a Knight Journalism Fellow at Stanford University.

Previously, she was a business reporter covering the defense industry for the Associated Press in Washington, where she was an APME nominee for her work on the Walter Reed Medical Center scandal. She began her career as a European economics writer for United Press International, where she filed special reports from Brussels and Hong Kong.
