About Aurora
I’m a multimedia journalist and nonfiction storyteller from Austin, Texas. My goal is to use my reporting to make the world a more informed and empathetic place.
I am interested in reporting on climate change and environmental issues as well as social justice, although I am always looking for new beats to explore. I specialize in audio journalism, having created everything from longform podcasts to short reported pieces.
If you like what you see here, follow me on Twitter and be sure to check out my reporting at The Drag Audio Production House.

The Rocky Horror Picture Show is a cult classic film that came out in 1975. Since then it’s evolved from taboo midnight showings to a quirky pop culture enigma. Even as the show and its fans have grown and changed, it has remained a place for people to explore their identity. Aurora Berry takes us up to the lab to see what’s on the slab.
