Ryann Brooks’s Biography

Read Full Bio →

Freelance journalist and marketing professional.

How is social media changing news?

It's easier and faster for people to get information, but that info isn't always accurate or from reputable sources.

How do you prefer to be pitched on stories?

Emails, phone calls, getting stopped in the street... I'm always open to pitches.

Did you work for your high school newspaper? If so, what did you do there?

I did! I was a reporter for my high school paper. I also drew comics — badly.
