About The Speaker
Greg David spent almost 25 years as editor of Crain's New York Business covering the city's business, economic and political issues. He is now director of the business reporting program at the CUNY Graduate School of Journalism while he continues as a columnist and blogger for Crain's. He appears frequently on many media outlets discussing political and business issues. His book Modern New York: The Life and Economics of a City will be published in April by Palgrave Macmillan.
 
David began his newspaper career at the Sarasota Herald-Tribune and worked at the Charlotte Observer before joining Crain Communications in 1976. He served as managing editor and special projects editor of Crain's Chicago Business and won a John Hancock award for a story on the deindustrialization of the Midwest. A story he edited on International Harvester won a Champion Tuck Award. < br> 
Under his leadership, Crain's New York Business was the only regional business publication to win the prestigious Gerald Loeb Award, which it did twice for stories on the demise of electronics retailer Crazy Eddie and the impact of AIDS on the fashion industry. A third story, "Nonprofits: New York's New Tammany Hall," was a Loeb finalist. The paper also was a repeat winner of the general excellence award of the Alliance of Area Business Publications and the Society of American Business Editors and Writers. David won Alliance and Society of American Business Editors and Writers awards for his editorials and columns.
 
At CUNY, Greg teaches courses on the national economy, Wall Street and the New York City business and economic scene.
 
Modern New York: The Life and Economics of a City is filled with the personalities, anecdotes and controversies David has covered in his quarter century working as a journalist a nd even more years living in New York. Autographed copies may be purchased after the meeting.
 
Please Note: The Executive Forum's mission is to provide a stimulating platform from which expert speakers can share their occasionally controversial views on current economic, business, political or social topics. Time is always allotted at the end of the formal presentation for a spirited Q & A session, during which we welcome the expression of alternative viewpoints.
