Mark defected across town last December after three years with another Stephens Media publication, the Pahrump Valley View. He is almost a Nevada local, having emigrated out west in 1996 after 15 years working for newspapers along the beaches of the Gulf Coast, which he traded for the ice and snow of Elko, Nev. Though he graduated from the intensely Midwestern University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee in 1979 with a degree in cheese, Mark still enjoys the Southwest, spending his leisure time along the Colorado River in the winter, or hiking trails in the Sierra Nevadas during the summer.
