New business editor named at Boston Herald

Frank Quaratiello has been named the new business editor at the Boston Herald, replacing Greg Gatlin, according to a story in Friday’s newspaper.

The story stated, “Quaratiello, an 11-year veteran of the paper, has worked as deputy business editor for the past two years. Before that, he was business copy desk chief.

“‘Frank’s distinguished himself as a creative, first-rate editor in every position he’s held at the Herald,’ said Editor in Chief Kevin R. Convey. ‘I know that, under his direction, the paper’s business section will become even more of a must-read.’

“‘We’ve got a talented staff,’ said Quaratiello. ‘I look forward to working with them to shake things up a bit and tell the stories of the Boston business community.’

“A graduate of Stanford University, Quaratiello was an award-winning reporter and editor at several small California newspapers. He worked as an editor at the Concord (N.H.) Monitor before coming to the Herald.”
