This episode of "Coffee with COJO" features visual communication instructor Frank Robertson.

Frank joined the SDSU School of Communication and Journalism in the fall of 2017 as an instructor to teach Intro to Digital Media, Basic Photography, Photojournalism, Advanced Photography, and Advance Multiplatform Storytelling — a course he developed while earning his master’s from the department’s online Master of Mass Communication program the same year.

After receiving his B.A. here in 1995, he spent most of the past 22 years in the newspaper industry as a photojournalist and multimedia editor, working at the Aberdeen American News and Sioux Falls Argus Leader here in South Dakota before spending ten years in southern Ohio at the Chillicothe Gazette, first as a staff photojournalist then eight years as its multimedia editor.

Frank was recognized in 2014 as Distinguished Alumni by the department and has earned dozens of awards for his work throughout his career, earning eight in just his final year at the Gazette which included five 1st Place awards and Best Photographer (Ohio APME Newspaper Awards, Div. I).
