Retail reporter leaves Philadelphia Inquirer

Suzette Parmley

Retail reporter Suzette Parmley has left the Philadelphia Inquirer.

She began her career at the Inquirer after internships at the Los Angeles Times and Boston Globe.

She spent most of 2014 covering the collapse of Atlantic City’s economy, among other things. From 2006 to late 2013, she worked on the Inquirer’s business desk covering gaming and casinos in New Jersey and Pennsylvania. Before business news, she spent nearly five years covering Gov. Christie Whitman and the statehouse in Trenton.

Her career highlight was spending nearly a month in Asia covering the booming gaming industry there in 2009, where she crossed the South China Sea from Hong Kong to Macau on a ferry.

Parmley is a University of Pennsylvania graduate.
