Hearst has named a new top editor at Popular Mechanics following current editor in chief Jim Meigs saying that he would leave the title after 10 years to work on a book project.
Ryan D’Agostino, most recently articles editor at sibling title Esquire, will assume the editor in chief role beginning May 1.
“We’ve always had our eye on Ryan, who is known as a wicked smart editor at Esquire”—he’s won two National Magazine Awards and a James Beard Award since joining the title in 2006—“and a key piece of everything that happens there,” Hearst Magazines president David Carey told Adweek.
