Marcus Banks is a journalist and commentator.

His reportage has appeared in the Gotham Gazette. His book reviews have appeared in the San Francisco Chronicle, Prick of the Spindle and Rain Taxi. His personal essays have appeared in the Superstition Review.

A librarian for more than a decade, Marcus is deeply interested in how the Web is changing how we create and evaluate information. A writer for longer than that, he also cares about how the Web has changed news gathering. He has written frequently about both topics on his blog, http://mbanks.typepad.com/.

He also loves baseball and dabbles in cooking. Baseball is best enjoyed on the radio (or the At Bat app) and cooking should always be by recipe.
