Michael Cavna tells me that Hannah Good is staying at the Post and will be taking over David Betancourt's comics page editing duties. She's been good for the WaPo's cartoon journalism this past year, so I'm very glad she's staying.
Here's her Post page info:
Hannah Good
Washington, D.C.
Education: Western Kentucky University, BA in English
Hannah Good is a Designer curating comics journalism and illustrated reporting with teams around the newsroom. She's also an illustrator and comic artist who has worked with HarperCollins Publishers, Apple TV+, Barnes and Noble and the BLINK art festival. Previously, she was an Opportunity Fellow on the Next Generation Audience Development team focused on comics and a social producer and comics editor for The Lily. Before joining The Post, she was a social media producer at Washingtonian Magazine. She's a proud graduate of Western Kentucky University, where she was editor-in-chief of the Talisman magazine.
In the meantime, DD Degg has dug deeper into the WaPo's latest "shrinking to greatness" moment so I don't have to.
But for the record, of the Style and Metro staff, my current tally of departures is: Cavna, Betancourt, exhibit reviewer Marc Fisher, media reporter Paul Farhi, theater critic Peter Marks and Metro's John Kelly and Courtland Milloy. Editors Jeff Leen, Sydney Trent and Lynda Robinson are going. Hank Stuever is staying as an editor for Style. As I've noted to a few people, owner Jeff Bezos could literally pay everyone in America to write for the paper without really noticing.
Updated: My friend Lisa's colleague Ann Maloney is also leaving the Food section.
