Wall Street Journal reporter Erica Phillips has been hired by the Los Angeles Business Journal to be its managing editor.
On Twitter, Phillips wrote, “I’m sad to leave a great group of colleagues, but I’m excited to work with @LABJnews staff to find and cover important local stories.”
Phillips, who is based in Los Angeles for the Journal, specializes in covering the global supply chain — that is, everything from ocean container ships to freight transportation, warehouses and e-commerce shipping.
From 2012-15, she covered national news, reporting on economics, criminal justice, education and the environment.
She previously was a reporter for the Los Angeles Daily Journal.
Managing editor Henry Meier will remain interim editor of the paper.
