When Bruce Springsteen released "Born in the USA," I remember as a teenager how much I liked that album. Every song struck a different chord, and that's when I knew Springsteen was in fact a musical artist aside from his fame as an entertainment juggernaut. In college, "Born to Run" became a theme song for me, especially with the line: "We're gonna get to that place that we really want to go and we'll walk in the sun..." Springsteen forges deep connections through his songs. For readers, Springsteen's autobiography is nothing short of taking an incredible vacation with a terrific talent.

2017 CSPA – Your Online Identity Really Matters
Here's a summary of my discussion at the CSPA 93rd Annual Spring Convention.
Students of High School Journalism: Use the Author Bio
feature on “newsmag” platforms to strategically build effective online
identities. See if the online platform through your school allows you to post
your picture with a biography statement on your author page. If you create an
author’s bio on your school’s online news site, all your published work will
assemble underneath your name and picture.
Why is the Author Bio feature so important to high school
students? When college admissions officers and future employers type in your
name with your school name, your Author Bio will appear at the top of the
Google page. Anyone can review all your published work by simply clicking on
your name.
