On September 15, USA TODAY turns 41 years old. To mark the occasion, I have curated my latest revision/update of books by current and former USA TODAY staffers (reporters, editors, executives, and people working behind the scenes). It also includes authors with USAT bylines, but who were primarily associated with either Gannett News Service, or individual Gannett newspapers.
I worked for the Gannett-owned newspaper for 21 years, 1987-2008, and treasure those days of collaboration with many of these super-talented people.
As I’ve noted in previous posts about the list, I have continued gratitude to many at USA TODAY/Gannett for crowdsourcing a considerable amount of additions. I will continue to add books to the list as I become aware of them; keep the suggestions coming!
