Annapolis Wrap: Countdown To Sine Die

Christopher Connelly/WYPR

Lawmakers in Annapolis are counting down to the last day of the legislative session on Monday. WYPR's Christopher Connelly joined host Matt Tacka to talk through what's happening at the end of the last full week.

Christopher Connelly is a political reporter for WYPR, covering the day-to-day movement and machinations in Annapolis. He comes to WYPR from NPR, where he was a Joan B. Kroc Fellow, produced for weekend All Things Considered and worked as a rundown editor for All Things Considered. Chris has a master’s degree in journalism from UC Berkeley. He’s reported for KALW (San Francisco), KUSP (Santa Cruz, Calif.) and KJZZ (Phoenix), and worked at StoryCorps in Brooklyn, N.Y. He’s filed stories on a range of topics, from a shortage of dog blood in canine blood banks to heroin addicts in Tanzania. He got his start in public radio at WYSO in Yellow Springs, Ohio, when he was a student at Antioch College.
Matt has come full circle on 88.1. First heard years ago as the afternoon traffic reporter with Diane Finlayson, he now keeps you company on your ride home Monday through Friday during All Things Considered, as well as on Saturday mornings. He is quite adept at brewing a fresh pot of coffee, since he usually empties it.
