He has worked for the brand for about 12 years.
New York Media editor in chief Adam Moss told his staff Tuesday that he’d be leaving and a little more than 24 hours later, his successor was named. David Haskell, who has worked at the company since 2007, will formally take over the role April 1.
Haskell, 39, will oversee New York Magazine and sister digital brands, including Vulture, the Cut, Intelligencer, the Strategist and Grub Street.
“When Adam told me that he’d be stepping down, it was quickly apparent to me that David should be the person to succeed him, and I’m thrilled that he accepted the challenge. He is a brilliant editor, boundlessly creative, and always inventive in the service of our journalism. We have worked closely together, particularly in the last two years, when he has helped us to establish new business ventures that build on our legacy in exciting ways. I know that he will uphold the highest standards of excellence and delight our readers,” said CEO of New York Media Pam Wasserstein, in a statement.
