Dawe returns to Statesman

The Daily Statesman welcomed back Jonathon Dawe to its writing staff this week. Dawe worked as a reporter for The Daily Statesman twice between 2000 and 2006.

Since leaving The Daily Statesman in 2006, Dawe has worked numerous different jobs and decided he prefers working as a journalist more than anything else he has done.

"It's like that old saying about having 'ink in your veins'," Dawe explained. "I decided to move back to the area because of family; and being back at the newspaper just feels right. I love the community and I look forward to staying put for a very long time to come."

Dawe said he looks forward to resuming some of his former responsibilities and hopes for many good things to come within the community.
