Boston Globe and Boston.com health reporter Chelsea Conaboy, UNH Class of 2004, will give a talk on “10 years in a newsroom: The things I've found worth fighting for” on Wednesday, April 11 at 5 p.m. in MUB Theatre I. The talk is free and open to the public. Please join us.
As the Donald Murray Visiting Journalist for 2012, Conaboy will also visit UNH journalism classes April 9-12.
Conaboy writes about Boston's medical industry, state and national health care policy, and advancements in medical research for the White Coat Notes blog on Boston.com and the Boston Globe. Previously a business and health reporter for the Philadelphia Inquirer, she started her career at the Concord Monitor. She graduated in 2004 from the University of New Hampshire with a triple major in Spanish, international affairs, and journalism, and she spent the following summer as a writing and reporting fellow at the Poynter Institute in St. Petersburg, Fla. Conaboy was recognized by state and regional press associations in eight consecutive years, most recently by the New Jersey Press Association for a story about the mortgage crisis in that state. She received multiple awards for her work on a five-part series about a Concord woman dying of a rare cancer and her family's struggle to redefine itself after her death.
