Crawford named editor of Birmingham Business Journal

Cindy Crawford has been named editor of the Birmingham Business Journal, an American City Business Journal paper.

She replaces Craig Ey, who has become editor of the chain’s Philadelphia paper.

A story on the Birmingham paper’s site states, “Crawford has been a journalist for more than 12 years, including nine years as a reporter at the Birmingham Post-Herald, the Waterbury Republican-American in Connecticut and the Daytona Beach News-Journal in Florida.

“A Tuscaloosa native, Crawford is a graduate of the University of Alabama with a bachelor’s degree in journalism and a minor in music. She is married to James Crawford and has two children, William, 3, and Allison, eight months.

“‘I have always loved the Birmingham area and have enjoyed getting to know the business community in the last three and a half years,’ Crawford said. ‘I look forward to continuing to make the Birmingham Business Journal a must-read product of breaking local business news in print and on the web.'”
