Daniel Katzive

I am a freelance journalist working in New York City. In my reporting I focus on explaining how the city and the region work, with an emphasis on infrastructure, transportation, waterfront land use and the maritime industry. My work has primarily appeared in the West Side Rag, a local news service covering the Upper West Side of Manhattan and in 2025 I began writing for the gCaptain maritime news service as well. I have also had articles published in lohud.com/the Journal News and the River Journal in Westchester. I embarked on my journalism career after working in financial markets as a research analyst for 25 years and then going back to school to earn a master’s degree in journalism from CUNY’s graduate school of journalism.
