(he/him)
Paul edited reporters covering criminal justice, mental health, housing, and immigrant communities. I served as KPCC’s first News Director, from 2000-2012.
I started in journalism as a radio and print reporter, and later worked as a foreign editor at NPR.
I really cut my teeth in the 1980s, covering Central America from my base in Tegucigalpa, Honduras. It was an excellent vantage point for covering two neighboring wars: the conflict in El Salvador, where the U.S.-backed government fought Cuban-backed guerrillas, and the war in Nicaragua, where the Cuban-backed government fought U.S.-backed guerrillas.
