We all pay our dues somehow. In 1999, budding
reporter Peter Hartlaub needed to prove his
mettle. He pitched and was assigned a feature story about the San
Francisco Medical Examiner's Office, which had been the subject of
some bad press in recent months. The experience turned out to be
enough for Peter to realize just what type of journalist he needed
to be.
This is Part 1 of Peter's Storied: San Francisco podcast. It's
about the origins and background of his ride-alongs with Medical
Examiner's Office investigators Graham Cowley and Bill Tolliver,
including Peter's first exposure to their work, and a Peter Rabbit
reference.
Check back on Thursday for Part 2 of this three-part episode.
