WSJ names new management reporter

Nikki Waller, management editor of The Wall Street Journal, sent out the following staff announcement on Friday:

I am delighted to announce that Rachel Feintzeig has joined the Management bureau to cover executives, managing and corporate leadership trends, along with the management consulting industry.

Rachel joined Dow Jones in 2008 as a bankruptcy and restructuring reporter in Washington, D.C., followed by a stint in Philadelphia covering the Philadelphia Inquirer’s Chapter 11 adventures. She then moved to New York, where she memorably reported on Hostess Brands’ bankruptcy, scoring important scoops on the company’s sale and sating reader appetites for news of the death, and eventual resurrection of, the Twinkie.

Rachel is a native of Fairfield, Conn. and a graduate of the University of Pennsylvania. Please congratulate her on this important new role.
