Al Lewis (newspaper columnist)
- Al Lewis (newspaper columnist)
Al Lewis is a veteran journalist and, since July 2008, the author of the offbeat Al's Emporium column for Dow Jones Newswires, a service of Dow Jones & Co. From 2001 to 2008, he was business columnist of the "Denver Post."
Lewis frequently details the follies of big business and conventional thought regarding the market and the economy. "As the name 'Emporium' suggests, Al will be writing on a wide range of business subjects through an unconventional perspective," Dow Jones said upon the column's introduction. It is published online each Tuesday and Thursday at 9 a.m. Eastern time.
Lewis, who grew up in Northbrook, Illinois, earned a bachelor's degree in journalism and political science from MacMurray College in Jacksonville, Illinois and a master's degree in public affairs reporting from the University of Illinois at Springfield.
He has worked as either a financial writer or editor since 1985. He has won several awards, including honors from the Associated Press, the Society of Professional Journalists, the Colorado Press Association and 2006 and 2007 column-writing awards from the Society of American Business Editors and Writers. He also won the 2000 Morton Margolin Prize for Distinguished Business Reporting from the Daniels College of Business at the University of Denver.
