Bio
Greg Munno
One of the hardest things at The Post-Standard was managing "across" the organization. Dealing with upper managers and reporters was a breeze compared with getting fellow assigning editors on the same page. Nolan, however, was a distinct exception to that rule. He has outstanding interpersonal skills, is a great verbal and written communicator, and doesn't shy away from taking on work and responsibility. That combination of attributes made him the most delightful and helpful of colleagues.
