Who Am I?
Senior reporter for American Public Media’s Public Insight Network. Before that I was a reporter for the news website MinnPost, where I did this, a senior editor at Utne Reader, a staff writer for Village Voice Media and a contributor to the Minnesota Independent. I’ve reported from the Middle East and points all over the United States as a staff writer for National Catholic Reporter and as a contributing editor at Punk Planet magazine.
Before turning to journalism, I spent years doing humanitarian work in pre-war Iraq. Electronic Iraq, a website I co-founded in 2003 to document the Iraqi experience of war, is archived in the Library of Congress and the British Library and that is a good thing because libraries are great and those libraries are amazing.
