A North Jersey Media Group veteran says she has been hired as The Record's new food editor, replacing Bill Pitcher.
Susan Leigh Sherrill of Montclair, (201) magazine's food and entertainment editor, told other writers on Friday she is the daily newspaper's new food editor, according to the online edition of The Paramus Post.
"We had a nice chat with Susan and were pleased to learn that she had just been promoted to food editor of The Record," Mel Fabrikant reported on the weekly's site.
Sherrill opened Village Green Café and Caterers in 1989 in Ridgewood. In 2000, she sold the restaurant and embarked upon a second career in community newspapers, becoming editor of NJMG's The Ridgewood News in the fall of 2001. She later joined (201) magazine as food editor.
The magazine -- a celebration of wealth in North Jersey -- is Record Publisher Stephen A. Borg's favorite NJMG publication. As for its journalism, it is about as hard-hitting as a wet noodle, and seems to be simply a glossy vehicle for advertising from luxury car makers, upscale restaurants and others who cater to the rich and powerful, people very much like Borg himself.
Sherrill hasn't been listed yet on Page 2 of the Better Living features section in The Record of Woodland Park.
Her work and her photo appear online in an NJMG blog called Table Talk:

On July 6, 2016, Gannett, the nation's biggest newspaper chain, paid the Borgs $40 million for North Jersey Media Group (The Record of Woodland Park, Herald News, NorthJersey.com, (201) magazine and 50 weeklies). Stephen A. Borg, publisher for a decade, oversaw the biggest downsizing ever. Local news declined, errors mounted and most employees were denied raises. Gannett replaced Editor Deirdre Sykes, revised The Record's website and redesigned the print edition, cutting another 350-plus jobs.
