U.S. News Hires

I’m pleased to announce that the health section will be welcoming a new writer October 29 2007–associate editor January Payne, who comes to us from a stint as editor of a weekly newsletter on on the business of healthcare, but who spent several years before that as a writer for the health section of the Washington Post. There she covered a wide range of consumer health stories, and also wrote about racial and socioeconomic health disparities.
