Christopher Nelson's Articles
Hi, I'm Christopher Nelson. I'm a Baltimore native who has lived "on both sides of town" in east Baltimore and west Baltimore. I'm in my early 20s, and I'm a graduate of Loyola College. I have also written, produced and reported for television and radio in Maryland and Illinois. I look forward to blogging for B about a variety of topics. I also look forward to thought provoking conversations and exchanges with you all. You can reach me at cenelson08 at gmail dot com.
