A Furniture/Today story states, “McIntosh joined Furniture/Today in 1991 as a staff writer from the Charlotte Observer in Charlotte, N.C., where he was a business writer. At the Observer, he wrote a personal finance column for several years before covering banks and savings and loans.
“Prior to his time at the Observer, he worked for The Daily News in Longview, Wash., participating in Pulitzer Prize-winning coverage of the 1980 Mount St. Helens eruption.
“McIntosh graduated from Oregon State University in 1976 with a degree in technical journalism and a minor in business, going to work at a weekly newspaper in Oregon before joining the Longview daily.
“At The Daily News, McIntosh was in the middle of one of the biggest news stories of the 1980s with the paper’s award-winning coverage of Mount St. Helens. He and a colleague were on their way to a camping trip in the mountains when they got word that Mount St. Helens had erupted. As the two reporters nearest the scene, they were dispatched to cover the story.”
