Fortune magazine named Craig Matters as its executive editor on Monday, according to an announcement. Matters will lead Fortune.com and helping to oversee technology and investing coverage.
He replaces Josh Quittner, who went to Time.
“With both a digital and print background, Craig is uniquely suited for this role,” said Serwer in a statement. “I am thrilled to welcome him to Fortune, and I know is he going to help us build on our success.”
Matters left Money in 2001 to become the founding editor of CNNMoney.com, the business and finance news Web site with 10.4 million unique monthly visitors, according to Nielsen Online. He rejoined Money in 2004 as executive editor.
Matters came to Time Inc. after a decade at American Lawyer Media, where he was the editor of an early online community for lawyers, Counsel Connect. Earlier, Matters ran the newsrooms of American Lawyer’s daily business and legal newspapers in San Francisco and Miami. Matters began his career as a reporter and editor at weekly and daily newspapers in Connecticut. A graduate of Vassar College, he has done additional coursework in web technology, accounting and statistics.
