Frank Barrows hired me to work for the Charlotte Observer. Then he convinced me to become a business journalist. He was a good man and a great editor. RIP. charlotteobserver.com/news/local/art…
I'll always remember what Frank Barrows told me when he was convincing me to cover banking. He said the stories about people are also about money, and the stories about money are also about people. It's a great piece of wisdom.
My other favorite thing about Frank Barrows is when he was struggling with a hard story he would take off his belt and literally strap himself into his chair.
