New Editor

New Co-Editor

With this issue, PMC welcomes Jim English, who joins Lisa Brawley as co-editor of the journal. This welcome is more properly a welcome back, as Jim served as review editor from the journal’s founding to 1996. Paula Geyh, who succeeded Jim in that role, will continue to oversee the review section. Assisting us will be Lisa Spiro, who has replaced Anne Sussman as managing editor. Deepest thanks to Anne for her years of service to the journal, and to Stuart Moulthrop, who concluded his tenure as co-editor in May.
