The Star Ledger

From September to December 2010 I was a reporter at The Star Ledger’s Local News Service, a now-defunct operation that fed copy exclusively for the Ledger. In mid December, the paper closed the bureau. A number of the reporters were folded into the paper, however I was not among them. It was a great job during which I encountered many wonderful and talented reporters, editors and photographers. I will always cherish the time spent in that little concrete box in Somerville, New Jersey and the experience of writing for a daily paper.

Less than three weeks after starting with the Star-Ledger’s Local News Service, I had one of my stories featured as the main story on the front page. I was quite surprised to arrive at the office and find my story printed with such prominent play.
