Connecticut native Lauren Komrosky has been named President and CEO of Connecticut Public Media by its Board of Trustees. Komrosky, who currently serves as Connecticut Public’s chief digital officer, will assume her new position on June 29. She succeeds Mark Contreras who in January announced his intention to step down.
Komrosky has been with Connecticut Public since 2015 in a variety of roles.
“For more than a decade, I have had the privilege of working alongside an extraordinary team whose journalism, storytelling, and commitment to public service inspire me every day. At a time when trusted journalism and community connection matter more than ever, I look forward to building on our momentum and expanding our impact across the state,” Komrosky said in a news release issued by Connecticut Public on Tuesday.
