Ethan Reddish has been hired as a reporter for The Post-Searchlight and Bainbridge Living. He began work on Tuesday.

Reddish, 23, comes from Odum, Georgia.

Reddish grew up in Odum, Georgia. He graduated from Wayne County High School in 2015. He attended Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College in Tifton, where he graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Writing and Communication.

While at ABAC, he served as the opinions editor of the campus paper, The Stallion. He also went on a month-long Study Abroad trip to Oslo, Norway, where he reported on Norwegian events and culture. Reddish also interned at his home-town paper, The Press Sentinel.

After graduation, Reddish briefly worked under District Attorney Jackie Johnson.

“I’m glad that The Post-Searchlight gave me this opportunity,” Reddish said. “It wasn’t easy finding a job in journalism after graduation, The Post-Searchlight was just what I was looking for.”

Post- Searchlight Managing Editor Jill Holloway said Reddish is a well- rounded reporter that will bring new energy and strong creativity and work ethic to The Post- Searchlight.

“I am very excited to have Ethan join our staff and become involved in the Bainbridge community.” Holloway said. “I think he will bring a new perspective to the paper, while still delivering relevant news to our readers every day.”
