Welcome to my virtual office
I'm a journalist/editor/producer/manager and—since 2021—journalism Instructor for Harvard University, where I teach classes to aspiring and veteran journalists as well as serve as a Capstone Director for masters of journalism students' final projects.
The opportunity to teach journalism came about because of the fortune of winning a fellowship with the Nieman Foundation for Journalism at Harvard, which was probably the best possible way for me to spend the first year of the coronavirus pandemic.
I've worked on staff for the Global Virus Network, American Scientist magazine. Science magazine, and St. Louis Public Radio, part of the NPR network.
My freelance client list ranges from international magazines and television networks to regional newspapers to local public radio stations.
My educational background enables me to specialize in science and economics, but I've also covered health, policy, business, and—especially—education.
In sum, I'll follow a good story wherever it leads.
So please have a look around my virtual office and be in touch if there's something I may do for you: RobertFrederick (at) NASW (dot) org.
