October Seniors Luncheon & Program Author Taylor Pensoneau October 18th at 11:30am, The year was 1965. The Vietnam War was raging; protests were rampant across the country; the civil rights movement was gathering steam; and recent graduate-turned-newspaper reporter Taylor Pensoneau was going to be writing about politics. And, not only was he going to be writing about politics, Pensoneau would be heading up the St. Louis Post-Dispatch s previously defunct bureau in the Illinois state capital. Heady stuff for a reporter so young he was often mistaken for a copy boy. At 24-years-old, I was being asked to reopen the bureau in the Illinois statehouse in Springfield. To me, that meant bylines. It was too good to be true, he said. His career would span two of the most tempestuous and defining decades in American and Illinois state politics. Pensoneau covered five national political conventions, including the riotous 1968 Democratic national convention. During the summers of 1973 and 1974, he was in the Washington bureau covering the Watergate hearings and Nixon s impeachment and eventual resignation. I knew I was getting to witness history, and be a tiny little part of it. It was all made possible by the Journalism School, Pensoneau said. Even at that point in my career, I knew I owed it all to the J-School. Following our Chicken quarters, mashed potatoes & gravy, Ty's green beans, roll and dessert luncheon! Get tickets from Arlyce for $7 or call the office for reservation.
