Kevin McCorry is managing editor of Keystone Crossroads, a statewide public media partnership telling the stories that intersect in the lives of all Pennsylvanians, focused on education, politics, government accountability, the economy, and changing communities. Kevin also hosts and produces “Schooled,” a narrative non-fiction podcast that centers the perspectives of students, parents, and educators.
He’s most interested in using narrative storytelling, rooted in data and built on strong characters, as a means of illuminating our understanding of the world.
In his free time, he’s probably working on a DIY house project, hiking the wilds of the Wissahickon, playing music with friends, or enjoying time with his wife and four (!) children.
