By Ruben Lone

As part of a major restructuring of the magazine and brand, Billboard has appointed former executive editor of Hearst Magazines International, Tony Gervino, as editor-in-chief. Janice Min, the new co-president and chief creative officer of Guggenheim Media Entertainment Group which owns Billboard, has praised Gervino for his editorial vision and drive.

Billboard also recently named Mike Bruno (Entertainment Weekly) as VP of Digital Content & Programming and Shirley Halperin (Hollywood Reporter) as Music Editor. Current Billboard editor Joe Levy will become editor-at-large.

In addition to overseeing all editorial decisions for Hearst and its Home Design, Men’s Enthusiast, and Womens Network magazines, Tony Gervino has also contributed to New York Times, New York Times Magazine, and launched the award-winning Antenna Magazine. Gervino is poised to bring a bit of class to the charts.
