After nine years at Opinion, Max Strasser will shepherd Ideas, tapping into big thinking around the newsroom. Almost a year ago, Joe asked us to create a new initiative for ideas journalism at The Times. The premise was this: In a complex and changing world, there’s a huge and untapped opportunity for our journalists to take on deep, explanatory pieces that introduce the ideas shaping the beats they report on. This impulse led, last October, to the creation of a new weekly feature, slugged Ideas.

Last month, I announced that Kathy Ryan would be stepping down as the Magazine’s Director of Photography. Today I am very happy to announce her successor in this important job: please join me in congratulating our new photo director, Jessica Dimson. Kathy obviously leaves some big shoes to fill, and there is no one who is more up to the job than Jessica. We are truly lucky to be able to turn to a journalist as impressive, confident and visionary as her at this moment.

It is with a mix of sadness, admiration and amazement that I’m writing to share some big news: After 39 years at The New York Times Magazine, 37 as director of photography, Kathy Ryan is retiring. Kathy is an icon. She has truly had more impact than any magazine director of photography in our time.

We are excited to announce the creation of a new weekly New York Times interview franchise that will provide readers and listeners with intimate, in-depth conversations with notable people from all realms of public life. It will be co-hosted by David Marchese, the Magazine’s Talk interviewer, and Lulu Garcia-Navarro, a veteran and well-known audio journalist who hosted “First Person,” an interview show for Opinion Audio, after 17 years at NPR.
