The Rochester Public Library is pleased to welcome longtime sportswriter Mike Whaley to share his extensive collection of stories and columns, meticulously curated from his more than 30-year career in the newspaper industry.

Mike’s journey began as a contributor to the Rochester Courier, followed by his work for Foster’s Daily Democrat and the now-defunct Rochester Times. With a passion for sports journalism, Whaley has earned a reputation for his keen observations, insightful analysis, and compelling storytelling.
