Debbie Galant is widely known in NJ’s media circles as the founder of Baristanet.com, a pioneering community news blog that ushered in the age of hyperlocal news coverage on the web. Galant has since moved on to direct NJ News Commons, an effort to united NJ news organizations, as part of her role as Montclair State University’s Associate Director of New Media Initiatives. Now she has launched Midcentury Modern, an online magazine that delves into issues of growing older in the 21st century while fostering an intergenerational dialogue among baby boomers, generation x-ers, and millenials.
