Pollack becomes executive editor at Ad Age

Judann Pollack

Judann Pollack has been named the executive editor at Ad Age.

A story on its website states, “Pollack, who joined Ad Age in 1985, has held just about every position on and off the masthead at the company. In addition to day-to-day editorial oversight of our agency coverage, she runs Ad Age’s popular Women to Watch event in both the U.S. and U.K., and has taken ownership of its buzzy Small Agency Awards program.

“‘Judy has a tremendous trove of industry and institutional knowledge, which makes all of our jobs just a little easier every day,’ says Ad Age editor Brian Braiker. ‘She also knows where a few bodies are buried.’

“Also receiving promotions are E.J. Schultz, who becomes assistant managing editor for marketing, and Jeanine Poggi, who is now Ad Age’s senior editor for media and technology.”
