Washington Post continues expansion across America desk

The Washington Post has added Karin Brulliard and Joanna Slater as national correspondents on the America desk. Brulliard will be based in Colorado and Slater in Massachusetts.

Brulliard has been with The Post for over 18 years, joining as an editorial assistant/summer intern. She then served as a criminal justice reporter, before being promoted to the post of immigration reporter. She then became South Africa bureau chief, Pakistan bureau chief, and then Jerusalem bureau chief. She was then named deputy foreign editor and then served as a staff writer.

Slater was recently serving as India bureau chief. Before joining The Post, she was New York bureau chief/U.S. correspondent/Berlin correspondent at The Globe and Mail. She has also served as a reporter at The Wall Street Journal.

Amanda Erickson, a former deputy campaign editor, has also joined the desk to help oversee the new regional correspondents as a deputy editor. With reporters also stationed in California, Kansas and Texas, the America desk is positioning The Post to respond to news affecting Americans nationwide with greater speed and awareness.
