The News and Tribune of Southern Indiana has hired Danielle Grady as the economic development and business reporter.
Elizabeth Beilman of the paper writes, “Grady, a 21-year-old native of Madison, is a recent journalism graduate of Ball State University. She worked at the Indianapolis Star this summer as a Pulliam fellow and interned with the News and Tribune in the summer of 2015.
“”We waited for more than a year to get Danielle here. We have a history with her as an intern – we know how good she can be,’ Publisher Bill Hanson said. ‘Her work ethic and her diverse abilities led me to do something I’ve never done before – intentionally hold a position open that long for one person. That speaks volumes about our confidence in what Danielle brings to our editorial team.’
“‘I wanted to work close to home because I really do enjoy Southern Indiana,’ she said. ‘I’ve been to other parts of Indiana, but I honestly think this part is probably the best place to be.'”
