About Rick Badie
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Rick Badie’s a Georgia Boy who grew up in Millen — a one (maybe three) stoplight town in the Real South. He’s been a reporter since 1986, the year he graduated with a bachelor’s degree in journalism from the University of Georgia. He’s been a staff writer for The Gainesville (Ga.) Times, and Orlando Sentinel, and has had articles published in USA Today and the Chicago Tribune. He joined the AJC staff as an education reporter in 1997, and was named the Gwinnett columnist in 2004. His work has won several awards, but who cares? What counts is what he’s doing right now, and that’s writing about Gwinnett. He and his wife, Joann, have two kids — Miles, and Olivia.
