Dave Rosenthal
Managing Editor, Mountain West News BureauI'm the managing editor of the Mountain West News Bureau, a regional public radio collaboration based at Boise State Public Radio. Being relatively new to the West, I'm fascinated by the range of issues here – from drought to wildfires, wolves to wild horses.
When I'm not at work, you can find me biking or playing pickleball. I'm also an avid movie-watcher and can recite entire scenes from "Diner."
