Reed hire

Speaking of Reed Business, the company has hired New York Post publishing editor Sara Nelson as editor in chief of Publishers Weekly, the bible of the book-publishing world. Check out her background as described in this press release. She's worked at the New York Observer and Glamour magazine, done some television work, and is married to the production designer of Saturday Night Live. She has the sort of varied background that I love to see in a top editorial executive.
