Editor's Note: Happy Birthday to Us!

First, I’m thrilled to say that Associate Editor Paul Barbagallo has been promoted to senior editor. As such, he’ll be taking on lots more responsibility around here.

Not that he didn’t have plenty already. Paul, who has been with North American Publishing (which publishes FS and its sister publications, Target Marketing and Inside Direct Mail) since 2001, has been an exuberant member of the FS team nearly since the magazine was conceived. He was one of the first people to greet me at the DMA New York Nonprofit Conference, which I attended the day after I was hired, even before stepping foot in my office here in Philadelphia.
