A promotion for Washington Post’s Galietta

The following excerpt announcement was sent out by The Washington Post director of photography MaryAnne Golon, deputy director of photography Robert Miller and deputy director of photography Dudley Brooks:

We are delighted to announce the promotion of Wendy Galietta to Senior Photo Technologist and Operations Editor.

In this role, Wendy will continue to lead all major technology initiatives within Photo. She has already improved live photography and editing workflows while serving as the photo department’s liaison to our engineering and product teams. Wendy will make further advances in facilitating the creation of new publishing tools.

Over the course of 13 years in Photo, Wendy has helped obtain thousands of images from reporters around the world and trained reporters to make better photos — some of which appeared in A1 and top table photo displays. In photographing staff members for author page photos and conducting new employee photo training, Wendy has interacted with almost everyone in the newsroom.

Wendy wrote a guide to photographing the solar eclipse using a smartphone.

Please join us in congratulating Wendy on this well-deserved promotion.
