Grant S. Moise, president and publisher of The Dallas Morning News, is being promoted to chief executive officer of its parent corporation — making him the first non-founding family member in nearly a century to lead the company.

DallasNews Corporation’s board of directors announced the leadership change Thursday.

Moise’s elevation means Robert W. Decherd, the company’s current CEO, president and chairman and great-grandson of The News’ founder George Bannerman Dealey, will move into an executive chairman role until his retirement from the board in 2023.

The changes also include the promotion of Katy Murray, the company’s chief financial officer and executive vice president, to president of the parent company.
