STEPHEN KIRKLAND

   STEPHEN KIRKLAND this month became the new regional editor for news agency Bloomberg after spending five years with the Warsaw Business Journal (WBJ). Kirkland, who helped start up the WBJ in 1994, served as managing editor and editor of the paper for its first three years. During his tenure he also researched new publishing markets around the country, and last year established editorial content in the WBJ's Lokale Immobilia real estate supplement. Kirkland, who hails from the San Francisco, California, area, has also lived in China and in Budapest, Hungary. Somewhat of a wine connoisseur, Kirkland has also published a book on Hungarian wines.
