Hawaii Business names new editor

Former Honolulu Star-Bulletin news editor Steve Petranik will become Hawaii Business magazine editor later this month, writes Star-Bulletin reporter Erika Engle.

Engle writes, “He will remain the 24/7 local news editor at the Honolulu Advertiser through the inauguration and start his new gig the next day.

“‘It is a great opportunity for me personally,’ he told TheBuzz. ‘It is a very challenging time for Hawaii businesses, but with challenges come opportunities. Hawaii Business magazine wants to be able to help people get through these challenging times and succeed.’

“His 30-year news career includes 22 in Hawaii.

“‘I’ve been doing a lot of different things in the news business and this sort of brings them all together.'”
