Kristin Jensen
Longtime Bloomberg News reporter and editor Kristin Jensen is leaving the company.
Her last day is Thursday.
Jensen says she’s taking some time off to be with her family and then will figure out her next adventures.
Jensen started at Bloomberg in October 1995 as a general assignment reporter and soon began covering the Food and Drug Administration. In 1999, she transferred to Zurich and became Bloomberg’s European health team leader. She held that post for three and a half years before returning to Washington to run the U.S. health team until early 2004.
Jensen covered politics and campaign finance from 2004 to 2012 and then moved to Bloomberg’s fast-news First Word team, where she’s been ever since.
Jensen is a graduate of Princeton University and Northwestern University’s Medill School of Journalism. Jensen twice earned a place on TJFR’s list of the top 30 business journalists under age 30.
Jensen and a colleague won first place in the Houston Press Club’s Lone Star Awards politics and government category in 2005 for a story about the connections between Karl Rove and donors to Swift Boat Veterans for Truth during the 2004 election.
