Sara Harowitz, new editor of the Straight

“For more than half a century, the Straight has been part of the fabric of our community, from award-winning editorial to some of the city’s biggest awards and festivals. We’re excited for this new era at The Straight, and to welcome Sara at the helm,” says Farhan Mohamed, CEO of Overstory Media Group, in an editorial on the Stratight’s website. Overstory owns the Straight

            She has held editorial positions at Montecristo Magazine and SAD Mag, and has written for Maisonneuve, The Huffington Post, Hazlitt, The Globe & Mail, The Province, and Well+Good. She’s a graduate of Toronto Metropolitan University.

            Overstory took over the Straight last fall and has since refocused its content on arts and events, relaunched the print edition and launched a weekly email newsletter.
