New London Day photojournalist Sarah Gordon has spent the past 11 months hunting for images to illustrate how our community is coping with the coronavirus pandemic.
Gordon, with the rest of The Day s visual team Sean Elliot, Dana Jensen and Peter Huoppi have captured stunning images day after day.
Drive-thru graduation ceremonies where each school came up with a different way to celebrate safely. A mother and daughter playing cards through their car windows. Cows, rather than people, walking over a newly opened bridge in North Stonington.
On Thursday, Gordon will discuss her work with a panel of leading state journalists at the Connecticut Foundation for Open Government s year-in-review program to The Stories Behind the Biggest Stories of 2020. The virtual event is free, but participants are required to register at www.ctfog.org to obtain a Webex link.
As the paper s new politics and government reporter, I write about state and national issues with a focus on southeastern Connecticut. I particularly enjoy reporting on voting rights and how political trends play out at the local level. I ve worked as a town reporter for The Day, covering Montville and Waterford from 2019-2021 as well as writing breaking news and general assignment stories.
