Investigative news organization names veteran Maine journalist as publisher
The nonprofit Maine Center for Public Interest Reporting has named a Maine journalist and founder of a health care trade publication as its new publisher.
Jack Beaudoin, a Brunswick resident, will become publisher of the investigative news service on Jan. 4, the center announced Monday.
Beaudoin, 51, was the founding editor and CEO of New Gloucester-based HIMSS Media, a publisher of business-to-business health care publications. He also previously served as editorial page editor for the Kennebec Journal in Augusta and Morning Sentinel in Waterville, as an editorial writer and Statehouse reporter for the Portland Press Herald and as a reporter for The Journal Tribune in Biddeford, his hometown, according to the center.
“I’m thrilled to join the Maine Center for Public Interest Reporting,” Beaudoin said in a statement. “This is a unique opportunity to advance in-depth, investigative reporting and ensure that our government and other centers of institutional power remain responsive to the people of Maine.”
John Christie and Naomi Schalit, who founded the center in 2009, will stay on as senior editor and senior reporter, respectively.
