In this first part of the In Their Shoes series, we take a peek into what drives this lifelong journalist to keep on writing, keep on plugging away, and, what drove him to return to college after so many years a thousand miles from where he began. Through a series of audio interviews, we will also hear about his life now, childhood and plenty of other interesting tidbits in between. J. Sebastian Sinisi: The journalist.
