Claim your profileI'm a cross-platform journalist with experience in investigative reporting, beat reporting, narrative features, and profiles. I've also made audio documentaries and written comics journalism.I spent 13 years as a staff writer for the Chicago Reader, covering police misconduct, immigration, labor, human rights, and the criminal-justice system, among other (less weighty, though still fascinating) subjects. I like finding untold stories, immersing myself in subcultures, and exposing abuses of power. My freelance work has been published by a variety of outlets in the US and Canada, including Pacific Standard, The Atavist Magazine, BuzzFeed News, The Marshall Project, The Seattle Times, The Walrus Magazine, The Appeal, and the Texas Observer. It has also been featured on CBC Radio, This American Life, Weekend America, and the Vox Tablet podcast. I have also been a staff reporter for the Canadian news organizations Capital Daily and the Investigative Journalism Foundation and worked as an editor and fact-checker.Links to my stories can be found at www.torimarlan.com.
