Hi there!
I’m Hannah Reale, a journalist with Boston’s local NPR station, GBH News. I cover children and families in Massachusetts — plus, I’m a digital editor.
I’m a determined newshound, shutterbug and eagle-eyed editor. And I love finding a good second-day story buried in data and documents.
Want to talk? I’m at hannahereale@gmail.com.

What else I’m proud of
Editing
I work with journalists across verticals to assign and edit for web (and sometimes radio).
Beyond the basics of nailing a digital story’s structure, that includes validating their data analyses with Excel, R and Python; copy editing for AP Style; and applying SEO best practices.
Photography
Find me in the field and you’ll find me with my hands full. I’ll have my audio kit, my notebook and my Nikon.
Data & documents
Data has a role in just about every story, even a Valentine’s Day piece about getting married in Boston.
Public records and FOIA requests are my tool of choice — but I can make my own datasets, too, to wrangle the information I need.
