Golygydd

Congratulations to Garmon Rhys, selected as Head of News for BBC Wales, from the tricky position of Deputy Head of News. The departure of current news boss Mark O'Callaghan (great Welsh name) was announced in April.

Garmon has a law degree from Cardiff, lives in Pontcanna, and has been with the BBC since 2000, mostly in news but with a three year-spell as Public Policy and Strategy Manager. He's married to Lowri, who used to be editor of general programmes for Radio Cymru. He is not to be confused with Garmon Rhys, the Welsh actor who's been playing the role of bassist Peter Quaife in the touring version of Kinks' musical, Sunny Afternoon.
