Colleagues:
After 44 years in journalism, nearly 38 at the Journal, I am retiring. My career took me to France, Germany, Hong Kong, Japan and New York, and I could hardly have asked for more.
I will miss the exciting, important work and fine people. I applaud your efforts to maintain the Journal’s high standards, which always have been the best in the business. It has been an honor to work with you and I wish you well.
Thanks to all and best regards,
Jim Browning
