Joe DePaolo’s Biography
I am a New York based freelance writer who has written about sports and entertainment for; The New York Times, ESPN.com, and a host of other print and Internet outlets. I also spent several years working as a producer of news and business talk radio for two national networks.
In 2013, I have published two longform profile pieces at SB Nation; "No Finish Line," on the comeback of Hall of Fame Thoroughbred jockey Gary Stevens, and "The Importance Of Being Francesa," a rare look inside the world of pioneering sports broadcaster Mike Francesa. Both stories have been cited by several of the prominent longform aggregators as standout pieces of longform journalism.
