Blog #1

1. Eric Berger is the face behind Chron.com’s Science blog, SciGuy. Berger dreamed of the stars and graduated the University of Texas with a degree in astronomy. However, dedicating a career to the classification of stars seemed dull to him, so he dove into journalism hoping to find a way to share the mysteries and complexities of science. He began the SciGuy blog in 2005, covering all scientific topics from weather to science policies to physics. 

2. Margaret Sullivan runs the aptly named Public Editor’s Journal on the Opinion Pages of the New York Times website. She is the fifth public editor appointed by the Times. She began with the Times in 2012 after being editor and vice-president of the Buffalo News. She served four times as a juror on the Pulitzer Prize board. A native of Lackawanna, N.Y., Sullivan is a graduate of Georgetown University and the Medill School of Journalism at Northwestern University, where she is a member of its Hall of Achievement. Her blog covers many controversial issues, such as the futures of the homeless, social security, and NSA leaker Edward Snowden.
