Michael Grossman, currently an assistant city editor at night, has been promoted to High Point editor. Michael's been with us since 1998 when we hired him away from The Progress-Index in Petersburg, Va, to be our criminal justice reporter in High Point. The next year, he became our online editor and made great strides in building the breaking news site.
Michael is going to continue our efforts in High Point, where we have 12 news folks who are putting out a strong, intensely local edition of the News & Record serving High Point and parts of Jamestown and Randolph and Davidson counties. We're still sorry that High Point city editor Ed Williams is leaving news to become our Brand Marketing Manager. But I am comforted that an editor of Michael's caliber is ready to take over.
