So long ⦠but not goodbye
The Web site for the award-winning alternative weekly, the Philadelphia City Paper.
So long ⦠but not goodbye
It's with no small amount of trepidation that I declared today my intention to step down from the editor's chair at City Paper. As of January 23, I will take over as the editor of two magazines published by local Red Flag Media: Cowbell, a relatively new music magazine with a glossy cover and an indie rock feel, and Grid, an excellent magazine dedicated to creating a sustainable Philadelphia.
It's hard to say goodbye to the publication I've spent most of my career hustling for; but when an opportunity comes along to dig into two subjects you're really passionate about, it's difficult to say no.
I'll leave behind one incredibly talented staff at City Paper for another at Red Flag. City Paper's incoming publisher Nancy Stuski and departing publisher Paul Curci will begin searching immediately for my replacement, and will be looking for someone to guide an award-winning staff (Pennsylvania's non-daily Newspaper of the Year 2010!) to greater heights.

Thank you, sir.
Working with you for two years and seeing the amount of passion that you have for CP was always inspiring. I wish you nothing but the best in the future!
