Dean E. Murphy, a reporter and editor with The New York Times for the last 12 years, has been named the next editor of the business section of The Times. The announcement was made on Wednesday afternoon in a memo from Jill Abramson, the executive editor.
Mr. Murphy, 54, succeeds Larry Ingrassia, who has been the business editor since 2004. While it is unclear what Mr. Ingrassia?s new position will be, Ms. Abramson said it would be ?a larger role? that would be announced early next year.
Mr. Murphy previously worked at The Los Angeles Times, where he was a foreign correspondent based in Poland and South Africa and reported on the war in the former Yugoslavia. He is a graduate of Northwestern University and has a master?s degree in international affairs from Johns Hopkins University.
Since he joined The Times in 2000, Mr. Murphy has reported on politics, worked as a San Francisco correspondent and served as deputy national editor before joining the business section as a deputy editor in 2010. Ms. Abramson credited Mr. Murphy for his handling of several highly regarded articles, including an expos? on the hidden wealth of the family of Prime Minister Wen Jiabao of China as well as a series on the digital economy that looked at working conditions in both the United States and in China.
Ms. Abramson described Mr. Murphy as ?one of our most accomplished editors, a staunch advocate for reporters and a fine writer himself.? She added that ?his years of reporting from abroad and from both coasts as well as his role as deputy national editor brought heart and breadth to our already superb business report.?
