By the time that I started at the Post in 2007, Ben Bradlee was long retired, but he remained a larger-than-life presence in the newsroom, cafeteria and intern lunches. My first beat was covering St. Marys County, where Bradlee and his wife kept a large estate. I will never forget being summoned to his office to be pitched (well, actually, assigned) a story about a project at Historic St. Marys City. I never dreamed that I would work at the newspaper I had read about in All the Presidents Men, let alone sit in Bradlees office and swap gossip about a far-flung rural county. He is already missed.
