NCPR Adirondack bureau chief recruited to NPR

Posted

CANTON — After 21 years of work as North Country Public Radio's first Adirondack bureau chief, Brian Mann has been recruited to a new position at National Public Radio.

Mann will work first to help the network cover the COVID-19 crisis and will then serve as the network’s first full-time correspondent focused on addiction-related issues, said a press release from NCPR.

Mann won't be leaving the North Country. He will continue to work from his home in the Adirondack Park.

As quickly as possible following the current public health crisis, Mann will pivot to cover the science, policy and human impact of addiction, building on his work over the last two years, said a press release from the station.
