Baltimore native John Steadman has reported on sports in Baltimore longer than any other writer or broadcaster. He began his journalism career as a part-time reporter with the Baltimore News-Post and later wrote for the Baltimore News American, where he served as sports editor for twenty-eight years. In 1986 he joined the Baltimore Sun as a sports columnist.
