About this listen

In this second episode of The Standard Fare, we’re continuing our discussion on careers in journalism by talking to Dan Morrison, senior instructor at the University of Oregon’s School of Journalism and Communication. Morrison shares about his early career as a photojournalist, his transition into professional teaching, and his many adventures along the way.

After working as a stringer for the Associated Press for four years, Dan Morrison began working for magazines as a writer-photographer. He has worked in over 31 foreign countries, including seven war zones. Since filing his first online feature story from Kenya in 1995, he has published from countries around the world, including Australia, Morocco, Mongolia, and Patagonia. In 2000, Morrison accompanied an expedition to Mt. Everest and filed online stories for more than two months from base camp as the expedition put two climbers on the summit. In addition to teaching at the School of Journalism and Communication, Morrison continues his freelance work, which now includes producing multimedia clips for KVAL television’s website.
