Brent Donaldson
Brent joined Gardner Business Media in the summer of 2017 as senior editor for Additive Manufacturing Magazine. He now splits his time between Additive and Modern Machine Shop—a dual role that presents a distinct opportunity to report on developments across today’s advanced manufacturing landscape. Before joining Gardner, Brent was editor-in-chief of a university magazine, and previously served as associate editor for Cincinnati Magazine. (Fun fact: Brent was the last journalist ever to interview Evel Knievel.) Today, Brent is interested in story pitches and leads relating to machining, advanced manufacturing, and all-things-AM and industrial 3D printing.
