New York Times executive editor Bill Keller put to rest one of the best-kept secrets in the industry today by naming Michele McNally as the paper's director of photography. McNally, who has been a picture editor at Fortune since 1986, will join the daily deadline pressures of America's leading paper in June.
McNally's title as director of photography is an upgrade in authority: photo chiefs at the Times have previously held the title of picture editor. One source familiar with management thinking says the title change shows that Keller and the other top editors have full confidence in McNally, and that alone should help her break down communication barriers between departments.
Photographers describe McNally as a strong editor and an impassioned defender of photojournalism. In addition to her work for the magazine, she regularly judges industry competitions and has worked as a mentor to young photographers at the World Press Photo's Masterclass in Amsterdam.
