Bio: Features Writer
Started at the Daily News: December 2003
Bio: Jonathan graduated from the Missouri School of Journalism in 2003 with two passions: newspapers and warm weather. Living in Southwest Florida for the past four years has offered him plenty both. The proud owner of an iPod, Tivo and a coffee pot that automatically grinds then brews, he puts a modern spin on the classics, enjoying both narrative and yellow journalism. Knowledgeable about both Medicare benefits and the R&B operas of R. Kelly, in his spare time Jon enjoys hanging out with his friends, playing the mandolin and post-ironic viewing of Saved by the Bell.

Sam Buzzacco's tattoo was inspired by the several near-death experiences of family members in the past year. "I felt like I needed a guardian angel watching my back," he says.
While my tattoo took a mere 20 minutes, Sam's took several hours, including time for a quick smoke break about an hour and a half in.
Hooligan Ink occupies a small portion of a block-long building in the heart of Youngstown, Ohio. Once a thriving industrial city rivaling neighbors Pittsburgh and Cleveland, Youngstown has taken the decline of big factories worse than many cities. Its population has dwindled and crime has increased.
