NATHAN O'LEARY
Curiosity has always motivated me to find meaningful stories and to find novel ways of telling them. From anchoring to reporting to hosting to teaching and podcasting, I've sought out new challenges over the years.
Journalism
Broadcast News
My news career began in producing and moved to reporting and anchoring.
It took me (and my wife) from Massachusetts to New York to Iowa and then back to Massachusetts.
Podcasting
With millions of people signed up as organ donors at the end of their life, thousands are still dying while waiting for a transplant.
So, why aren’t more people taking part in a different system that could save these lives and countless others?
Hosting
As a host of Comcast Newsmakers in New England, I spotlight leaders and innovators in the areas of government, business and non-profits.
Teaching
As a faculty member in Media and Communications, I have the opportunity to teach a diverse group of talented students who will be tomorrow's journalists, public relations experts, advertisers, podcasters, influencers, and much more.
