Prior to becoming publisher of the Chicago Tribune, Hiller served as SVP of Tribune Publishing, President of Tribune Interactive, and SVP of Development, where he oversaw strategic investments in Internet and new media companies for Tribune Ventures. From 1988-1993, he was Vice President and General Counsel of Tribune Co.

Prior to joining the law firm, he held several positions in Washington, D.C., including law clerk for Supreme Court Justice Potter Stewart. He received his law degree from Harvard Law School, where he was an editor of the Harvard Law Review, and received his undergraduate degree from Harvard College.
