Bill Hudson, Editor, Writer, Photographer, Editor, Videographer, Web Designer, Former Vegetarian
Bill Hudson, the editor of the Pagosa Daily Post, has absolutely no academic training in journalism, although he did have a subscription The New Yorker magazine for two years.
He started the Pagosa Daily Post as an entertaining hobby in 2004, in collaboration with five or six Pagosa friends ... all of whom realized, almost immediately, that publishing honest, well-researched news in Pagosa Springs would be an immediate threat to their health and safety; they very soon quit the project but apparently forgot to warn Mr. Hudson about the obvious dangers.
Mr. Hudson has had a fascinatingly diverse career, starting off as a recreation director in Juneau, Alaska, where he served as the coach, simultaneously, of five elementary school basketball teams who competed against one another. At each game, Mr. Hudson coached both teams and also served as the sole referee. Consoling the losing team also played into his job description ... a tricky role, considering he had just served as coach for the winning team.
That training has proved invaluable in understanding the workings of the various governments in Archuleta County.
Mr. Hudson has lived in Pagosa Springs, he claims, "for about ten years too long." He can be reached via email at bill@pagosadailypost.com or on Facebook.

Cynda Green, Assistant Editor, Writer, Photographer, Music & Theater Fan, Fearless Seeker of Truth & Justice
Cynda Green bought her rustic cabin in Pagosa in 2005, after her 1947 craftsman cabin in Julian, California was destroyed by a catastrophic wildfire. It was her second 'cat loss', to use insurance lingo. Her first cat loss was a town house on the sugar sand beaches of Panama City Beach in Florida. Hurricane Opal reduced that property to a shell in 1995. 'I don't think I'm a hex to bring on catastrophic events,' she says. 'I just love beautiful places close to nature, and they are inherently high-risk environments.'
Ms. Green has led a life filled with diverse vocations and avocations. She spent many years sailing, and was the Commodore of Santa Clara Racing Association in San Diego at one time. That opportunity opened the doors to many blue water yacht racing and cruising experiences around the world.
In her prior life, among other vocations, Ms. Green was a boat appraiser, real property appraiser, and systems analyst for the San Diego County Assessor.
Ms. Green became involved in the Pagosa community by attending various government meetings and then writing about her feelings regarding the dark, unfathomable nature of local politics. Her agreement with editor Bill Hudson is that she writes about 'what she wants, when she wants', and that she will not take the Pagosa Daily Post more seriously than her editor. So far, so good ... and so fun!
