Becca Rawiszer, Web Opinions Editor

For Becca Rawiszer ’17, creativity is in her blood. Her mother was an actress on Broadway, her brother is a working film producer and Rawiszer herself has felt a passion for writing ever since her sixth grade English teacher recommended her for the Bedford middle school magazine.

Even Rawiszer’s name is a reflection of her bubbly, original personality. “Becca’s just more fun and I feel like Rebecca sounds so formal and biblical,” she said.

Although she also runs cross country, Rawiszer most enjoys the discovery involved with writing and especially journalism which allows her to “inform people of such interesting things they didn’t already know,” she said.

Rawiszer is a web opinions editor for Inklings this year and is excited to improve her skills, hoping to ultimately pursue a career as a reporter someday. She looks forward to continuing to learn about newspaper writing and to a jam-packed year of doing what she loves.
