Indianapolis Biz Journal’s Harton becomes custom content editor

Tom Harton

Tom Harton has been named custom content editor at the Indianapolis Business Journal.

He had been contributing editor.

Harton joined IBJ in 1984, fresh out of Indiana University’s School of Journalism. He covered banking, real estate and the business of sports before becoming associate editor in 1988. He became managing editor the following year and editor in 1990, serving in that position until 2013.

Over the years, Harton’s short stories about Indianapolis real estate have been published in The New York Times, and he has won statewide and national awards for his IBJ editorials and columns.

In that new role, Harton will work with the IBJ sales team on custom content opportunities.
