Beat: At Home Editor/arts writer

Bio: Harriet has been a Collier Countian since 2000. A native of Troy, Ohio, she published her first 2-page newspaper at the age of 10 — shortly after her 7-page illustrated novel at age 8. She graduated from the College of Mount St. Joseph in Cincinnati and worked for newspapers in Ohio; Fort Wayne, Ind.; and Kentucky covering government, business, religion, travel and the arts, even pinch-hitting as a basketball desk writer.

She has won a William Allen White award for editorial writing and either first or second place in the Florida State News Editors for arts criticism for the last four years. That does not make writing a solid arts story one whit easier for her.

Her rewards for editing At Home's home and garden topics are meeting resourceful, talented people and having good food in her own back yard. She grows lettuce, bananas, papayas, tomatoes, mangoes and pineapple (the easy crops), skis badly and loves to cook as long as it doesn't involve Brussels sprouts.
