Crystal Ligori, a producer and newscaster for “All Things Considered” and the “Literary Arts: The Archive Project” radio program, visited Lincoln High School to facilitate learning about podcasts for students in their Mass Communication classes.

Ligori shared her experience and journey in the journalism field and gave students advice on how to navigate the journalism business. Later on, she worked hands on with students to teach them on the whole process of podcasting.

According to OPB TV, Ligori received her degree from University of Montana in Broadcast Journalism. She also earned a Society of Professional Journalists award as well as a Hearst Journalism Award. Before all this, Crystal was employed in a rock station KUFO in Portland.

On behalf of all of the students from Mass Communications, we want to thank Crystal for the assistance and guidance that she showed throughout the class. We are so glad that we got to hear a glimpse of how she got where she is, and that she got to inspire us how to achieve our dream careers. Not only did we learn about podcasting, but she informed us about some tips on how to do well in other aspects of journalism
