July 29, 2005 To the staff:
As many of you already know, a number of our colleagues are leaving The Times newsroom after accepting the company's recent buyout offer. Some will not leave until later in the summer; a few will stay on longer. You have already seen a few articles about your departing colleagues in Ahead of The Times, and more tributes will follow.
But since a handful of those who have taken the buyout will mark their last official day at the paper today, we wanted to make sure everyone had a chance to wish them well, or drop them a line, if you have not had the opportunity to do so already. Here is a list of those who will be leaving the building, at least officially, as of today:
. Neil Amdur, Senior Editor, News Admin . Linda Amster, Deputy, News Information and Technology . Jan Battaile, Deputy Editor, Washington Bureau . Fox Butterfield, Correspondent, Boston Bureau . John Darnton, Associate Editor . Marjorie Goldsborough, Researcher, Washington Bureau . Robert Hanley, Reporter, Metro . Caroline Herron, Staff Editor, Book Review . George James, Reporter, Metro . Iver Peterson, Reporter, Metro
And in case you missed it, the following people have already left the building:
Michael Anderson, staff editor, Book Review Al Breuning, clerical staff Charles Conway, clerical staff
Stay tuned for more news and articles about other colleagues who will be bidding us farewell, including those who will mark their last days in August and beyond. |
