1204. Writing (and Editing) His Ticket in the Mountains of France
Ward Everett Rinehart
“Working as a reporter for a newspaper in Springfield, Massachusetts, I learned what was satisfying to me, was to learn something and then be able to use that to help other people understand issues they faced or the concerns they might want to get involved in, and issues that were going to affect their lives.”
Ward Rinehart is an American who lives and works in the Jura Mountains of France. He co-manages Jura Editorial Services, a small business editing and writing English-language publications for international organizations in nearby Geneva, Switzerland, and for clients worldwide. Prior to moving to France, he worked in international health communication for 30 years at Johns Hopkins School of Public Health in Baltimore, MD.
