Glenn Jordan joined the Portland Press Herald/Maine Sunday Telegram in 1994 to cover the fledgling Portland Sea Dogs. A native of Vermont, he was a philosophy major in college who worked at two newspapers in New Hampshire and one in Connecticut before moving to Maine and settling down. He spent his first two years of marriage living in the keepers quarters of the Portland Head Light and has three children, all of them excellent spellers. In addition to baseball, he has covered nearly every sport played in Maine, from biathlon and curling to running and sailing. You can find him near cross country trails in fall, pools and ski slopes in winter and tennis courts in spring. He also covers the Red Claws, Maine’s D-League basketball affiliate. When not holding a notepad, he finds time for checkers and pickleball.
