REPORTER

Doug Zywina

I began my career in the newspaper business at the very bottom of the totem pole, as a paper carrier. That eventually led to a job in the mailroom and then the pressroom. After 3-1/2 years as a pressman in Yorkton, Sask., I returned to Dauphin and the Herald where I once again worked in the press room. After a couple of years, however, I made the unexpected jump into the newsroom as sports reporter, leaving the pressroom for good in October 1998.
