NY Times Deputy Editor Amy O'Leary Joining Upworthy

37c63c1Amy O’Leary, most recently digital deputy editor of The New York Times, is leaving the paper to join Upworthy, where she’ll serve as editorial director. O’Leary had been with the Times since 2007.

“Ultimately, when Upworthy’s been successful, it’s because the stories, videos, and graphics we share strike a deep chord,” wrote Unworthy’s co-founders, Eli Pariser and Peter Koechley, in an announcement. “Amy’s going to lead the charge in making that chord even more resonant, and help us move from a few powerful chords to a full song.”
