Gail Thompson transformed the New Haven Advocate "from a scruffy
low-budget weekly into a community
powerhouse," Carole and Paul Bass write in a story announcing her departure after 11 years as publisher. "Under her stewardship, the paper
nearly tripled its sales, broadened its
readership, broke major investigative
stories and helped spawn such
community events as City-Wide Open
Studios and Film Fest New Haven," they write.
