Deborah Barrington
Deborah Barrington, a managing editor at Industry Dive, retired earlier this month, becoming the first editorial staffer to retire from the business news operation.
During her time as a senior editor and managing editor, Barrington managed Construction, CIO, Education, Food, Smart Cities, Supply Chain, Utilities and Waste. She was a part of the launch teams for Food Dive Ingredients, two HR weeklies, Cybersecurity and Transport. She had a short stint with BioPharma.
“A single hire can change the trajectory of an early stage company,” wrote Industry Dive CEO Sean Griffey on Twitter. “Deb came in and helped build the culture of the newsroom today.”
She previously spent 23 years at USA Today, including stints as news editor, senior assignment editor, assistant managing editor and NFL editor.
Barrington also worked for the Tampa Tribune and the St. Petersburg Times on the sports desk.
