The public broadcasting leader is in search of a books editor who will edit and produce arts coverage for NPR.org from their Washington, D.C. office. The ideal candidate will need to have daily news and online experience as well as an arts or journalism background.
Aside from producing Web stories, you’ll be responsible for writing headlines and display copy while editing photos and creating multimedia content like slide shows and audio presentations.
