ASNE
While most seventh graders
were adding to their baseball
card collections, N. Christian
Anderson III, incoming ASNE
president, was writing sports
stories for his small-town
newspaper.
As one of fewer than 1,500
people growing up in Heppner,
Anderson was drawn to reading
and writing. By the time was a
freshman in high school, he was
the sports editor for the Heppner
Gazette-Times. When he was 18,
he ran the paper for a summer.
"I'd probably have to ask my
mom," said Anderson, who
could not remember when he
began writing. "But I don't
consider myself a good writer."
Now, nearly 35 years into the
journalism business, Anderson,
48, is ready to apply his
experience from working at
papers large and small-from the
Walla Walla (Wash.) Union-
Bulletin to The Seattle Times
and The Orange County Register
to his. new position at ASNE.
Anderson will map out his
goals in an address Friday. "I
don't think you reinvent the
organization every year. You
build on its strength," he said.
He plans to continue ASNE's
goals of establishing better
connections with communities
by increasing readership and
improving
credibility
and
diversity. He will also be
working with the Newspaper
Association of America on an
initiative to increase readership.
"The new initiatives are
definitely part of the plan,*' said
Anderson, who returned to the
Register in January as chief
executive officer and publisher
"The strength in ASNE is
clearly in the committees' work,"
said Anderson, who has formed
three
new
committees.
Partnerships and Diversification,
Marketing and Circulation, and
Design and Presentation.
"I think ASNE is an
organization that is all about
editors working together," he
added.
"The best I can do is to make
certain that our goals are very
clear, and be as persuasive as I
can in helping editors reach their
goals."
"Chris is a hard charger,' said
outgoing
ASNE President
Edward L Seaton. "He's a
newspaper man through and
through."
Prior to joining the Register,
Anderson was the publisher and
president of The Gazette in
Colorado Springs.
He attributes most of his
success to his friends and
