Sallie Hofmeister Leaving the LA Times

The LA Times‘ top arts and entertainment editor Sallie Hofmeister is leaving the paper after more than 17 years on the job. A memo sent out today from EIC Davan Maharaj announced that June 22 will be Hofmeister’s last day. She will apparently take the summer off before “embarking on a new career challenge.”

From the memo:

Sallie leaves an important legacy. She led a gifted roster of writers and editors — and brought aboard new journalistic talent — to build a formidable team during some very tough times.
