The Basics
Hometown: Mahopac, NY E-mail: Ashley.Tarr@Patch.com Phone: (917) 207-9660 Birthday: July 24 Welcome Video: Click here to watch. Bio: My interest in journalism started when I was the photography editor for the student newspaper in high school. After I graduated, I attended Binghamton University, where I earned a Bachelor's degree in English while dedicating the majority of my time to Pipe Dream, the student-run newspaper. I worked as a staff writer and editor before becoming editor-in-chief my senior year. During my time at the paper I covered investigative pieces, administrative and ethical issues. A few months after I graduated from Binghamton and finished up as editor-in-chief, the Princeton Review named Pipe Dream to its list of the top 20 college newspapers in the country. My experience also includes writing for The Journal News, both in print and online.
