Columbia Gorge Editor

Dan Richardson

Once newspaper reporter, publisher, recreationalist, climber, pianist, dad. Not necessarily in that order.

 
  Dan and his little New Westerner

Dan grew up in the Columbia Gorge. After a long sojourn, traveling and schooling from West to East and back, he has returned to live and raise a family and, maybe, a little heck. Dan made a living (not much of one, granted) as a newspaper reporter for everything from rural weeklies to suburban dailies to urban alternatives. Back where he belongs, Dan stepped over to the dark side ˜ publisher. He launched The Current (a Gorge alternative paper) and ran the Goldendale Sentinel, and, to complete his initiation into the sordid further reaches of journalism, has taken to launching a Gorge-wide Web node for New West.
