Yesterday, I interviewed former Miami Herald Executive Editor Larry Jinks about Janet Chusmir – who went on to become the first woman to head the newspaper. He was good friends with Janet and was very helpful in providing information about Janet’s career and rise through newspaper management. I appreciate his time.

Janet was unique for a woman in journalism in many ways. First, she took a non-traditional career path by spending many years as a homemaker raising two children before becoming a journalist. Second, she went from a women’s page editor to a successful executive editor.

I am writing a conference paper about Janet’s career.
