About

I’m Kurt Greenbaum, director of social media at the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, where I’ve worked since August 2002. I’ve been a journalist since 1983, working as an intern for the Lancaster New Era in Lancaster, Pa.; the Chicago Tribune; and as a reporter and editor at the Sun-Sentinel in Fort Lauderdale.

I have been interested in social media for a long time; my interest began long before anyone started calling it “social media.” As a member of the team that got the Sun-Sentinel online for the first time (on AOL, no less!), I’ve always been most interested in the reader interaction that the web facilitates. Hence, the new position at the Post-Dispatch.

I wouldn’t begin to characterize myself as an expert. I hope I’ll learn a lot from anyone who reads this blog. And thanks to Marijean Jaggers, the STLWorkingMom, for her encouragement to get this up and running.
