'Times' Goes Critically Shopping; Gets New Thursday Styles Editor
New York Times Style czar Trip Gabriel has a new deputy to helm Thursday Styles. Today, The Times named former deputy regional editor Mary Ann Giordano as the Thursday Styles Deputy Editor. Gabriel said on The Times' internal web site that Giordano, in addition to her Thursday duties, "will have a hand in generating major stories for Sunday Styles and for the front page."

Mary Ann at one time was our Managing Editor over here at the Observer, before moving over to the Times. At Styles, she'll have quite a bit of Observer alum confraternity: Warren St. John, Alex Kuczynski, to name two.
