Dave Askins

Dave Askins is editor of The Ann Arbor Chronicle, an online-only newspaper dedicated to local government and civic affairs coverage for the Ann Arbor, Mich. community. The Chronicle has used the WordPress platform since its launch in September 2008. Askins’ experience in web publishing dates to 2005, when he started a website called Teeter Talk, a series of transcribed interviews recorded while riding a teeter totter in his backyard. Askins went to school first to become a mathematician and later a linguist, but was distracted from those paths.
