My respect for Jen Graves skyrocketed during her coverage of TAG's sudden closure last December. As the arts editor for The News Tribune, Jen was frequently criticized for a million different reasons, and I likely leveled some of criticism her way as well.
But she was tenacious in her pursuit of the City of Tacoma to repair the Water Forest, and her devotion to revealing the truth about TAG's woes--not just reducing the problem to a "he-said/she-said" situation--was wonderful journalism.
Her swan song article at the Tribune is worth reading, and its summary of the arts in Tacoma is well-done. Enjoy Seattle, Jen!
