Born on a submarine base in Graton, Connecticut, Scott Brodeur who enjoys Tai food and his mother's stuffed artichokes, is not your typical University of Massachusetts professor.
"I've hung out with Ol' Dirty Bastard, before he died" says Brodeur as he continues on to tell of the experience of letting Dirty Bastard, one of the founders of the hiphop group Wu-Tang Clan, drive his new car. "All his friend's shook their heads no when he asked."
Being a magazine writer and rock critic for sometime, Brodeur has had numerous experiences with deadlines, concerts, and stars. Now he is living in the small town of Northampton, Massachusetts, where he is an editor-in-chief of Masslive.com, father of three, and Journalism Professor at the University of Massachusetts where he teaches of the new wave of convergence.
Being a typical Massachusetts resident, Brodeur is a Red Sox fan despite his birth in Connecticut and childhood in New Jersey. He has written for magazines such as the Source, but is now focused on the internet and "trying to reinvent what journalism websites should be" said Brodeur.
