Minnesota Public Radio Legal Affairs Reporter

In five years with MPR, I covered the Minnesota courts and legislature. Among more than 800 reports on legal issues, I covered such national stories as the child sexual abuse allegations in Scott County and federal district court appeals for Leonard Peltier.

Other responsibilities included filling in as News Director, covering breaking events out in the field, anchoring MPR talk shows, and regularly contributing stories to the national wire services. At conferences and seminars I frequently served as a panelist on legal and reporting issues and as a regular contributor to MPR's Minnesota Monthly magazine.
