Cynthia's Portfolio
"In the annual Best of the South Side we invite South Side residents—community leaders, writers, youth, regular people—to help us craft the issue by telling us what they love about their neighborhoods.
We invite you to immerse yourself in the responses you find here and to patronize local businesses, get inspired, and learn from one another. In no way is this an exhaustive list of everything that’s good in the South Side, or even of every neighborhood, but it may show you a side of things that you may not be used to seeing. #BoSS2021"
The Quarantine Times:
"In mid March, after a week of reconfiguring all of our lives, again and again, we launched a new project, The Quarantine Times. It’s an expanded conversation and publication project designed by team members and friends of Public Media Institute (PMI), the nonprofit that runs the Co-Prosperity Sphere, Lumpen Magazine, Lumpen Radio (WLPN 105.5fm), and the new Buddy space at the Chicago Cultural Center. The Quarantine Times will live on the web and the radio, in an email newsletter, and, once all this is over, in a publication and at a party. From March 23rd 2020, through late June, 2020, our team, which includes a board of editors working in different disciplines, has commissioned and shared creative responses from Chicago community members getting through this crisis as best they can. We shared their news daily across all our platforms."
NPR's Next Generation Radio 2023:
"WHAT IS THE MEANING OF HOME? is a set of audio and digital stories highlighting the experiences of people in the Chicago area.
This project was produced in June 2023 in partnership with Chicago Public Media. Our reporters are early-career journalists in Illinois."
