Playbill

• Book and Periodical Publishing
• 1 - 100 Employee

• Senior News Editor

  • Jan 1991 - Present

  In my tenure at Playbill, I have managed a staff of writers and editors who cover theatre in New York and throughout the country. I developed and write two of our most popular features, Diva Talk and Their Favorite Things, which have brought new readers to Playbill.com, the industry's most respected theatre website. I am an accurate, detailed writer who works in a fast-paced environment, penning 30 or more news stories each week, and my copy-editing skills are exceptional. I have an excellent working relationship with members of the industry and numerous celebrity contacts. I have successfully led key projects and hired and trained a wide range of writers. I have also written promotional material and advertisements, hosted a program for Playbill Radio, and worked as a line editor and headline writer. Show less
