David O. Williams, a journalist in the Eagle River Valley since 1991, has returned to the Vail (Colorado) Daily in the role of business editor.
Williams first moved to Vail in 1991 to serve as sports editor of the Vail Daily, then ski editor (an actual title back then), Eagle County reporter and city editor before moving out of town to work at publications on both coasts. He returned to the Vail Daily in 1997 before moving to the competing Vail Trail and Daily Trail newspapers from 1998 to 2003.
Since then, Williams has been an independent freelance journalist, producing articles for more than 75 publications ranging from The New York Times to People Magazine. Since 2007, Williams has been the publisher and managing editor of RealVail.com, which he will now put on the backburner indefinitely.
