Fisher has been with the Times since the early 1990s. He has served as a Metro reporter and worked in five foreign bureaus — Nairobi, Warsaw, Prague, Rome and Baghdad.

“Ian brings to the weekend job unfailing judgment, the respect of his colleagues across the newsroom and an intricate understanding of how to guide our global news operation,” wrote Times executive editor Dean Baquet, in a memo.
