Coverage of Tropical Storm Alberto 1994

The story of the stories

In the summer of 1994, I reported on and photographed the human cost of destruction throughout Georgia after Tropical Storm Alberto.

Detroit Free Press

This is the most fun I had. I found a very committed volunteer whose painting skills helped children process loss of their homes.

Kalamazoo Gazette

I followed Red Cross volunteers from Michigan in the aftermath of the storm in Albany, Georgia.

Battle Creek Enquirer

I profiled a Georgia family with Michigan ties digging out following the destruction of their home and loss of their belongings to Alberto’s wrath.
