Hollis Walker, editorial page editor for The Durango Herald, will speak at a virtual meeting of the Rotary Club of Durango at 6 p.m. Tuesday via Zoom.
The editorial board of the Herald chose four topics to consider in depth throughout the year, in hopes of encouraging community engagement and offering new ideas and challenges: Beyond Our Means (homelessness and affordable housing); Doing Business Better (creating a sustainable business economy); Common Grounds (stewardship of the environment and climate change); and Healing the Rift (overcoming the polarization in the community and nation).
Walker will host monthly public Zoom meetings to discuss these issues at noon on the last Friday of each month.
Walker is new editorial page editor for both the Herald and The Journal. She has a master’s degree in journalism and has taught journalism, public relations and writing both privately and at the university level. She has worked for the Albuquerque Journal and The Santa Fe New Mexican and has written for publications including The Wall Street Journal, Mother Earth News and Ms. Magazine.
Virtual visitors using Zoom are welcome.
