Wednesday, February 15
5 PM to 6:30 PM
Columbia Journalism School

Producers and youth reporters from WNYC's Radio Rookies Staten Island 2011 group will meet with students and professors at the Journalism School in a workshop that  will explore personal storytelling, journalism and the Radio Rookies' production process. 

In January, the six young storytellers were recognized for their "Coming Up in 2011" series, which bravely and unsparingly told of their personal challenges growing up today from expressing sexuality to growing up in foster care.

The workshop will be co-hosted by Ann Cooper, professor and director of the broadcast program, and Joe Richman, adjunct professor and founder of Radio Diaries.

For inquiries contact Jacqueline Kook.
