Dallas Morning News business editor Paul O’Donnell sent out the following announcement on Wednesday:
All,
We’re excited to announce our second reporting hire as part of our expanded business news coverage plan.
Marin Wolf will join us June 7 after graduating from the University of North Carolina. She’ll take over the breaking news/general assignment position vacated by Dom DiFurio’s move to the consumer companies beat.
Marin was a double major in college — journalism and peace, war and defense studies — and held a variety of reporting and editing positions at The Daily Tar Heel. She directed and edited coverage of governments and communities, led a team of mainly first-time student journalists, and wrote about poverty and economic disparities as part of the Tar Heel’s investigations team.
Last summer, Marin interned at Bloomberg News on its diversity and sustainability desk. She also previously took part in the Bloomberg-UNC-Berkeley Business Journalism Diversity Program, where she learned financial concepts within the context of discussions about diversity and inclusion.
Before Bloomberg, she interned at online news organization EducationNC, and founded a Rising Writers Program that matched high school writers with struggling elementary school students.
That’s the boilerplate information about Marin, who pronounces her name “Muh-Rin” like the county in California. Since Marin will be new to our newsroom and Texas, I asked her to play along in a little Q&A so we can all get to know her better.
