Tanya Meyer

Veteran business editor Tanya Meyer has joined Crain’s Chicago Business as a copy editor.

A story on its website states, “Meyer most recently was a digital content coordinator and copy editor for Commercial Observer magazine in New York. Prior to that, she served as digital editor for the Chicago Daily Law Bulletin and its sister publication, Chicago Lawyer magazine. Earlier in her career, she was an associate editor at Crain Communications’ BtoB and Media Business magazines.

“A graduate of Lewis University in Romeoville, Meyer, 36, hails from the south suburbs of Chicago. In her new position, she will work closely with Crain’s copy chief, Scott Williams.

“‘We feel fortunate to be able to add an editor with Tanya’s rich background to our editing ranks,’ said Crain’s Editor Ann Dwyer. ‘We have always prided ourselves on staffing our copy desk with journalists who care deeply about the quality of our content and see themselves as equal partners with the assignment editors, reporters and graphics editors on our team. We’re confident Tanya will carry on that tradition.'”
