I wrote two columns for The Mobile Press Register as part of its 200th anniversary series titled “We Were There.”
In the first, I recalled the afternoon of June 30, 1981, when
I encountered a hostage situation in the office of then-Mobile Mayor Robert
Doyle, who was being held at gunpoint by a former policeman. I agreed to talk
to the disgruntled man and became a hostage myself. You can
read the story here.
The second column focuses on colorful newsroom personalities
of the past century. Read it here.
Do
you have a story you would like to share?
