Jonathan Newman
OnLion Advisor
For 23 years, I've been the advisor of the OnLion, working to help my reporters tell the stories of The Lovett Upper School. I've also tried to practice what I preach, writing articles along with my students. In addition to Newspaper Journalism, I teach sophomore and senior English classes; run our school’s short short story contest; advise the Honor Council; and co-run the senior projects program. More literally, I love to do some actual running; it’s one of my favorite ways to let go of the life of the mind and focus on breath and movement. I also love to go for dog walks with my sweet, brilliant wife.
