Minneapolis/St. Paul Biz Journal names new publisher

Kathy Robideau, the advertising director at the Minneapolis/St. Paul Business Journal, has been promoted to publisher of the American City Business Journals newspaper.

Jim Hammerand of the paper writes, “She fills the vacancy left by Tammy Mencel, who left in November to be publisher and market president of the Business Journal’s sister publication in Honolulu.

“Robideau and her husband, Tim, live in Apple Valley with their two-year-old twins: son Max and daughter Payton. An Ohio native and Ohio State Buckeyes fan, she attended the University of Cincinnati and Capella University.

“Robideau has led the Business Journal’s advertising team since moving to Minnesota in 2010. Before that, she was chief operating officer of Winter Park, Fla.-based NurseStaffing.”
