Paul Gaier has joined Adams Publishing Group as its new regional president for Northern Wisconsin, working with newspapers in Eau Claire, Rice Lake, Spooner, Ashland, Sawyer County and Price County.
The move marks a return to his roots for Gaier, who began his career getting an up-close view of operations in Chippewa Falls, where his father was publisher.
“I grew up around that. I grew up around taking the phone calls from readers. We all worked in newspaper. I started in the basement, where we inserted papers,” he said. “My goal was to be a publisher.”
