Possible Profile Topics
For this profile assignment, I came up with three options that might serve as interesting profile pieces. My first choice is to profile my best friend's father, Stephen McLaughlin. He is a former Marine, is very involved with his church, and in his spare time, works doing "ghost-hunting" and exorcism work for locals. I am extremely interested in the paranormal and I believe some of his stories might form a really interesting piece. My second choice is a my General Manager, Bill Smith. Every Monday morning I work with Bill one-on-one at 4:30am as we count inventory for the entire restaurant. I'm always laughing based on the stories he tells me but I'm not quite sure how I would turn this into a profile. I need to come up with a solid idea that would allow me to show his extremely comic side through a profile. My third choice would be my Honors English teacher, Donald Burke, from my senior year of High School. He was involved in the annual blood drive at my school, prepared the students to send in their college essays, and though the topics may not have been that interesting, he was extremely enthusiastic about his work and enjoyed getting to know his students based on more than there graded assignments. I'm leaning more towards my first option.
