Lisa Dukart

I write The Inquirer Local newsletters, delivering hyperlocal weekly digests of the most relevant community news to suburban audiences in Lower Merion and Cherry Hill.

A Greater Philadelphia native, prior to joining The Inquirer I was the associate editor of the Philadelphia Business Journal for four years. There, I led the newspaper's 15 annual special publications, all social media initiatives, and worked across the print and digital publications to deliver daily business news to readers.

I spent five years prior to that in increasing roles at Main Line Today magazine, most recently as executive editor. There, I covered the Main Line and its surrounding communities, searching out and telling often untold stories. I also worked on its sister publications The Hunt, Delaware Today, and Weddings Today magazines, writing and editing stories most relevant to readers across the Brandywine Valley.

I have bachelor's degrees in English and philosophy and a master's degree in journalism, all from Boston University.
