Colleen Almeida Smith has been named business editor of the Tulsa World, replacing Rod Walton.
Walton writes, “Rod is a hard act to follow, but I’m going to give it my best as your new business editor.
“Some things won’t change in the Business section — such as our dedication to covering energy, aerospace and finance. We will continue to give you the news that matters in mergers and acquisitions, unemployment rates and the stock market.
“But we will also bring you more about the small business owners and local entrepreneurs, the openings and closings around town and new developments.
