Some changes coming for me:
After almost 17 (!) years as the Daily News op-ed editor and editorial board member and six as editorial page editor, I’m moving to a new full-time job, as managing editor at Vital City, a new journal on urban policy, politics and culture started by Liz Glazer and Greg Berman. While I loved and love The News, I’m excited about the chance to slow down my breathing a bit, commission compelling and nuanced longer-form pieces and maybe even enjoy a genuine family vacation or two along the way.
I’m not leaving the Daily News entirely, though. I’ll keep a foot there as senior contributing member on the board, which means you can still reach me at jgreenman@nydailynews.com to yell about something we said or didn’t say.
(The new job and the adjusted role at The News both start in the new year; I’m taking a little bit of time off in between.)
I’m excited and somewhat apprehensive – a person probably only leaves a job he’s done this long once in his life – but mostly excited.
Feel free to send me pitches for pieces you’d like to write. We’re trying to build something important to the future of the city.
