Hi. I was a television reporter for WCVB-TV in Boston from 1978 - 2000, where I specialized in reporting on environment and science issues. I was lucky enough to twice win the DuPont-Columbia Award, one of the highest honors in broadcast journalism, and seven regional EMMY awards. I was a Knight Science Journalism Fellow at MIT 1994-95, and a member of the Board of Directors of the Society of Environmental Journalists from 1991-2000. I've taught journalism at Boston University, Tufts University, and MIT. I then spent 16 years as an Instructor at Harvard University and a consultant, teacher, and speaker on risk perception, risk communication, and risk management. I was co-director Instructor of the Harvard School of Public Health's professional education course 'The Risk Communication Challenge'. I was also creator and director of the program "Improving Media Coverage of Risk", a training program for journalists.
