'NY Times' Politics Scribe Jumps to Theater Beat

Whatever else you want to say about The New York Times, it doesn't pigeonhole its talent.

According to a Times source, the paper has assigned Patrick Healy, one of its up-and-coming political reporters, to cover Broadway. He replaces Campbell Robertson, who recently relocated from the Great White Way to the Green Zone, joining the paper's Bagdad bureau over the summer.

Among Healy's more widely-read stories on the politics beat was a nudge-nudge examination of the Clintons' marriage that drew some blowback from Clinton allies.

Although I'm told Healy (who didn't immediately return messages left for him) doesn't take up his new duties until December, it looks like he might already be warming up.
