Reeve Weiner joins The Garden Island
Reeve Weiner has joined the staff of The Garden Island newspaper as advertising director, announced Publisher Shanna Pollard.
After earning her bachelor’s degree in English from Brooklyn College, this native New Yorker embarked upon a copy-writing job in advertising, which began an extensive career as a media professional over 20 years ago.
After strong media planning and national buying experience in both print and broadcast, she was invited to Hawai‘i by a major shopping center to develop and produce print advertising materials.
Over the past 12 years, Weiner has created major media opportunities for not only most of the major shopping centers in Hawai‘i, but for other national and local retailers, food accounts, and the state Department of Health. She most recently was media director of PCF Virtual Advertising in Honolulu.
She starts tomorrow, Monday, April 19, and may be reached at 245-3681 (ext. 239), or rweiner@pulitzer.net.
