  • Claire McInerny is a student at the University of Kansas in the William Allen White School of Journalism and Mass Communications, scheduled to graduate in May 2013. She has extensive experience with newspaper, magazine, and radio reporting, but no matter the medium, her passion lies in telling stories.

    Claire manages the award-winning website of KJHK-FM, and is also its News Director. She also serves as the Assistant Director for the Kansas Scholastic Press Association, organizing conferences and educational opportunities for high school journalists statewide.

    Currently, Claire interns at the NPR station KCUR-FM in Kansas City, helping produce a daily public-affairs talk show, Central Standard. In the summer of 2012 she interned at Checkout magazine in Dublin, Ireland. 

    Claire comes from a long line of writers in her family, and hopes to live up to the great stories produced by other McInernys.
