KEITH CLAXTON, BJ '01, joined the Missouri School of Journalism in August 2007 as the Harte Information Graphics Teaching Fellow. He teaches the class "Infographics" two days a week to a class of about 15 students.

Claxton, a native of St. Louis, has worked as a visual journalist at the Chicago Tribune since January 2002, when he started a two-year residency that led to full-time employment. He said he decided to return to his alma mater for the opportunity to be a leader and to practice his teaching skills. Claxton will return to Chicago at the end of the fall 2007 semester.
