Margo Jefferson is out as theatre critic at the New York Times. “Earlier this summer, the Times announced that Jefferson—a Pulitzer Prize winner for her book reviews— was “on leave” in order to write a book. Many in the theatre community, however, suspected she would not return to the theatre beat. The Times recently named Patti Cohen to the new position of overall theatre editor. Cohen will oversee the daily and weekend coverage of the theatre. Cohen confirmed that Jefferson had stepped down.”
