Charles Crumpley, the longtime editor of the Los Angeles Business Journal, has been named editor and publisher of the San Fernando Valley Business Journal. The change will be effective Monday. “Charlie’s done great work here,” said Matt Toledo, the publisher and chief executive of the Los Angeles Business Journal. “I’m thrilled he is taking his experience from Los Angeles to enhance the brand and reach of the Valley operation, which is our sister publication. His experience and passion is essential for the growth of that paper.” “I’m very proud of what our journalists accomplished at the Los Angeles Business Journal in my 10 years here,” Crumpley said. “And of course, I’m eager to get started in the Valley, which hasn’t had a publisher since August. There’s already a great team of reporters under the editor, Joel Russell. I’m reasonably familiar with the business community, but I’m looking forward to becoming personally acquainted with the dynamic entrepreneurs and operators in our territory.” Crumpley, 62, has been a journalist all his career. As a daily newspaper reporter and later a senior financial writer, he won several national awards, and he was a Fulbright scholar to Japan. While he was editor, the Business Journal won numerous national awards; in a four-out-of-five-year span it won the gold medal for general excellence from the main professional association of business journals. He is a three-time First Place winner for column writing from the Los Angeles Press Club, and in November he was named the Outstanding News Professional of 2015 by the Los Angeles Chapter of the Public Relations Society of America. Jonathan Diamond, who has been a managing editor two times for the Los Angeles newspaper, will be the new editor there. Diamond, 54, first joined the Business Journal as assistant managing editor in 2000 upon moving to Los Angeles from New York, where he was a literary agent representing authors such as then-New York Yankee manager Joe Torre. Following his initial stint at the Business Journal, he became the senior communications deputy to the Los Angeles City Attorney’s Office and then took a mid-career master’s degree at UCLA’s Luskin School of Public Policy. He returned to the Business Journal as managing editor in 2013 before leaving late last year to assume the role of assistant managing editor at The Hollywood Reporter.
