NEW YORK, June 28, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ALM, a leading provider of news and business information to the legal and real estate industries, today announced that Wayne Curtis has been appointed as the new publisher of the Daily Report, the only publication that offers comprehensive coverage of Georgia's legal affairs.
Curtis will oversee both business and editorial operations of the Daily Report and will report to Chris Mobley, ALM's group publisher for Florida, Georgia and Texas.
"Wayne has substantial experience in the business-to-business publishing industry and a proven track record in growing revenue and delivering profitable growth in professional markets," said Mobley. "He is a Georgia resident who previously operated his own business in Atlanta, so he has strong ties to the state and is already well-connected to the audience served by the Daily Report. Wayne's track record in leadership and sales will serve the Daily Report well and are in tune with our ongoing efforts."
Prior to joining ALM, Curtis was a regional sales manager for Elsevier, where he had corporate sales management responsibilities in the Americas for the publishing company's online chemistry and pharmaceutical databases. From 1994 to 2005, Curtis held a variety of positions with Reed Business Information, including a three-year stint as a group publisher for the division's most successful magazine group and another three-year stint as vice president and general manager of Reed Construction Data in Norcross, Georgia.
Every day, lawyers and business leaders across metro Atlanta and throughout Georgia begin their morning with the Daily Report. Since 1890, lawyers have depended on the newspaper – and in recent years, its online companion (www.dailyreportonline.com) – to keep them abreast of the latest developments in their practice areas, trial coverage and the business of law. With a dedication to hard news and enterprise reporting, the Daily Report has earned the distinction of being "a smart read for smart readers."
