New York Times Magazine Raids Texas Monthly for New Editor
Posted in: Uncategorized
The New York Times has named Texas Monthly Editor-in-Chief Jake Silverstein as the new editor of The New York Times Magazine, the company said Friday. He will oversee a redesign of the magazine.
The hire caps off a three-month review of the magazine by Times Managing Editor Dean Baquet and T magazine editor Deborah Needleman. When Times Executive Editor Jill Abramson announced the review in December, she said she owed staff “more clarity on how the magazine relates to the rest of our news report and how it can be the most distinctive, edifying, pleasurable part of our news offerings.”
The Times had sought a new editor for the magazine after Hugo Lindgren exited the role in November.
