LOS ANGELES, CA, UNITED STATES, February 9, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The Los Angeles Tribune announces the appointment of Deanna Schultz as Managing Director and Senior Editor of two new flagship publications: The Houston Times Magazine and The Dallas Herald Magazine. The launch marks a significant expansion of the Tribune's regional coverage, bringing award-winning journalism and documentary storytelling to Texas readership.
Schultz brings more than 15 years of distinguished experience in broadcast journalism, documentary filmmaking, and media leadership to her new role. She has held senior editorial positions at NBC-Telemundo, MundoFOX National News, and served as News Director at Univision KXLN-TV in Houston, where under her leadership the station won its first-ever Emmy Awards and a National Association of Hispanic Journalists Award.
She has worked as a Field Producer and Writer for The Weather Channel, field-producing coverage of severe weather events—including the deadly Mayfield, Kentucky, tornadoes—with a focus on delivering timely, accurate information to help audiences make informed, potentially life-saving decisions. She also conducted Spanish-language interviews for The Weather Channel Español.
Her acclaimed documentary work has garnered numerous international awards, including Official Selections at the Lonely Wolf: London International Film Festival, WorldFest-Houston International Film Festival, and the San Diego Latino Film Festival. Her documentary "Yoga Therapy for Life" received Exceptional Merit for Viewer Impact at the Docs Without Borders Film Festival, while her bilingual documentary "Un Nuevo Capítulo / A New Chapter" won the Audience Award for Best Short Documentary at the Silicon Beach Film Festival.
"I am honored to lead The Houston Times Magazine and The Dallas Herald Magazine as we launch these vital new platforms for storytelling," said Schultz. "My vision is to bring the depth and authenticity of documentary filmmaking to magazine journalism, creating content that truly reflects the diverse voices, experiences, and stories that define Texas communities. These publications will serve as essential forums for meaningful dialogue, investigative reporting, and the kind of culturally resonant storytelling that connects people across boundaries."
Schultz's bilingual fluency and commitment to serving multicultural audiences positions her uniquely to lead publications that will reflect the rich diversity of Texas readers. The Houston Times Magazine and The Dallas Herald Magazine will feature in-depth profiles, investigative journalism, cultural coverage, and community-focused storytelling, with content available in both English and Spanish.
"Deanna Schultz represents the highest caliber of editorial leadership," said Dawna Campbell, Executive Vice President of The Los Angeles Tribune. "Her award-winning track record, bilingual expertise, and innovative approach to multimedia storytelling make her the ideal leader to launch these important new publications.
