Marcy Branson has been named Area Publisher for the Boerne Star and Bandera Bulletin by officials at Granite Media Partners Inc., owner of both publications.
Granite Media officials said Branson, a 27-year veteran in news, sales and advertising organizations, brings a unique kind of energy to the Hill Country Group, as well as decades of experience.
“Marcy is the perfect publisher to oversee the Boerne Star and Bandera Bulletin. She is a thorough manager, a veteran newspaper salesperson, very experienced with community publications and a great team leader,” said Thomas Edwards, the executive editor for Granite.
“What a lucky thing for me to be able to be a part of two of the most beautiful and friendliest cities in Texas, Bandera and Boerne,” Branson said. “It's the wonderful people that make your cities my favorite places to be.”
Branson comes to Granite Media and The Bulletin from a five-year stint as business development advisor with Ad Solutions.
Previously, she was owner-publisher of SAFreedomsaver.com, publisher-general manager for Victory Publishing, publisher-general sales manager for Prime Time Newspapers Inc., and director of advertising-marketing for Red Mc-Combs Enterprises.
“I've known Marcy for more than 25 years, going back to our shared experiences with newspapers in San Antonio, and I can't think of anyone better than her for this very demanding job,” Edwards said.
