NEW YORK – The Associated Press has named Paul Haven as its global director of top stories, a role in which he will direct a multi-format consultancy that aims to elevate the storytelling and presentation of the news co-operative’s top global stories in all media formats.

Kristin Gazlay and Jerry Schwartz will become senior editors at large at AP, leading company-wide efforts to improve its writing and editing.

The announcements were made Wednesday by Managing Editor Brian Carovillano.

Haven most recently served as AP’s news director for Latin America, overseeing more than 100 journalists.
