Managing Editor

Claudia Carson-Habeeb, managing editor of People Newspapers, got her start at The Baylor Lariat. Her debut publication, Falling Through the Spiral of My Notebook (1993), launched a career devoted to writing without margins. A former on-screen HGTV personality, she covers everything from hometown heroes to global design trends and curates a multigenerational family library that would make Borges proud. Happiest on horseback, she spends her spare time hoof picking with volunteers at her animal rescue nonprofit.
