Dan Peres Is the New Editor-in-Chief of Ad Age | People on the Move

[caption id="attachment_182909" align="alignright" width="150"] Dan Peres[/caption] Dan Peres is taking over Ad Age as its next editor-in-chief, succeeding Brian Braiker, who left in April after three years atop the masthead. Peres is best known as the former editor-in-chief of Details, a role he held for 15 years from 2000 until Condé Nast shuttered the magazine in 2015. More recently, he was announced as the incoming editor-in-chief of Gawker as part of an attempted relaunch under new owner Bustle Digital Group, but those plans were ultimately called off last summer. Prior to Details, Peres was also an editor at then-fellow Fairchild Media publications W and WWD. His memoir, "As Needed for Pain," detailing his struggle with an opioid addiction while at Fairchild and Condé Nast in the early to mid 2000s, was published by HarperCollins earlier this year. "I’m incredibly honored to be joining the team at Ad Age," Peres said in a statement. "The publication has such a rich history, and I’m excited to be a part of its future."
