Soller, editor of Bloomberg Businessweek Etc. section, leaving

Kurt Soller, the editor of the Etc. section in Bloomberg Businessweek magazine, is leaving for a job at Bon Appetit.

On Twitter, Soller wrote, “I will miss . Everyone here is incredibly smart, talented and fun.”

Soller joined Bloomberg Businessweek as deputy editor of Etc. in October 2013 from New York magazine’s women’s and fashion site, The Cut, where he served as features editor and was part of the team that re-launched the site to much acclaim in 2012. He became editor of Etc. earlier this year.

Soller accepted the offer from Bon Appetit weeks before editor Josh Tyrangiel announced his departure from Bloomberg Businessweek.

Prior to The Cut, Soller spent two years as Esquire’s online grooming and style editor, relaunching and directing daily content for its highly trafficked Style Blog. He previously was a staff reporter covering cultural trends for Newsweek. As a freelance writer, he has written for Details, Time Out New York, Gotham, Condé Nast Traveler, SPIN, BBC Travel, The Daily Beast, and more.

Hailing from New Hampshire, Soller holds a B.S. in Journalism from Northwestern University.
