About Me
- Jackie Majerus
- Jackie Majerus is a veteran journalist with an award-winning career as a daily newspaper reporter. She wrote for dailies in Illinois, New York and Connecticut. With her husband and favorite co-worker, Steve Collins, she began working with teen reporters in 1996, an effort that began as The Tattoo teen newspaper but grew into Youth Journalism International. YJI is an educational non-profit organization that connects teen writers, artists and photographers with peers around the globe, teaches journalism, fosters cross-cultural understanding, and promotes and defends a free youth press. Check it out at www.youthjournalism.org.
