English named publisher in Shreveport

Posted

As a capstone to reorganization inside the newsroom, Alan English is now president and publisher of The Times, Shreveport, La.

English rejoined The Times as executive editor and general manager last year after serving stints as publisher of the Log Cabin Democrat in Conway, Ark., and as vice president of audience and executive editor for The Augusta Chronicle in Georgia. He's also worked at the The Rochester Democrat and Chronicle and The Journal News, both New York Gannett newspapers.

In 2000, English served as managing editor of The Times and he was promoted to executive editor in 2004.

His new role puts the operation and publication of both The Times and The News-Star in Monroe, La., under his purview. North Louisiana News Director and Strategist Alison Bath will succeed him as Times executive editor.
