 About Me

I am a writer, reporter, editor, instructor, multimedia/communications professional and a native of Greater Boston. My work has appeared in an array of both traditional and digital media including USA Today, Sports Weekly, the Associated Press, Boston Globe, Boston Herald, Boston.com, MLB.com, CSNNE.com and many others. I've even written for a Japanese mobile app. (I've also written corporate communication pieces, but those are proprietary, so I haven't included them on this site.)

​

As a reporter/writer, I have covered just about everything from sports to news to politics, including breaking news and writing feature stories.  

I've covered almost every sport at almost every level from Little League Opening Days to Thanksgiving Day high school football games to minor-league hockey all-star games to Boston Marathons (which I've also run) to NFL playoffs and World Series-clinching games.

 

I've written two books: "Diary of a Red Sox Season, 2007" with the legendary Johnny Pesky and "Yogi Was Up with a Guy on Third...", conversations with 53 of the 64 baseball Hall of Famers living at the time. I have a couple of other books still rolling around in the gray matter -- stay tuned!

​

As an editor, I've worked on everything from high-level, academic STEM, bio/pharma/medical and nursing manuscripts to breaking news stories.

 

I got my start in journalism when I was a kid -- with a paper route, delivering the Lynn Daily Item, the Boston Globe and the Boston Herald. I later wrote for the Item when I was in high school,  and have written for all three papers since graduating from Merrimack College (bachelor's degree) and Boston University's College of Communication (master's degree).

​

I expanded into the teaching field, as an adjunct professor at BU, Merrimack and Salem State University, teaching journalism and business communications. I have found teaching to be extremely rewarding -- and also extremely challenging.  It's very dynamic and the students definitely keep me on my toes, which I really enjoy!

 

I also have experience in television/radio reporting and web/video production. I was very honored to be awarded several Telly Awards and  a Sigma Theta Tau International Honor Society of Nursing Award as a video producer and scriptwriter for several educational nursing and medical video series.

 

On this site you'll find some of the stories I've written, including news and feature stories in various topics. I think this will give you a good idea of my writing style. 

 

I hope you enjoy this site. Please feel free to contact me thru this site or email me at MaureenMullen21@gmail.com and follow me on Twitter @maureenamullen.
