New editor named at Nashville Business Journal

Lance Williams has been named editor of the Nashville Business Journal, according to a short story posted Tuesday on its web site.

He’s the third top editor at the weekly in the past two years. Dave Raiford was named editor in March 2007, replacing Geert DeLombaerde, who left in December 2006. Raiford has left the company, according to an e-mail from Beth Hunt, manager of editorial operations for parent American City Business Journals.

The story stated, “Williams, who has been editor at the Austin Business Journal in Austin, Texas since 2006, had previously served as the paper’s managing editor for two years.

“He joined American City Business Journals in 2002, working as a reporter and editor with the Cincinnati Business Courier.

“Prior to joining ACBJ, Lance worked as a bureau chief for the Lexington (Ky.) Herald-Leader and as a reporter for the St. Louis Post-Dispatch and the Centre Daily Times in State College, Pa.”
