Arthur H. Gunther
I penned The Column Rule, a newspaper opinion piece, for 25 years, 1981-2006 at The Journal News in Rockland County, New York State.
In retirement, to keep the mind active, to pursue a love of writing and in response to some requests, I continue to offer (humbly, I hope) comment on people, places and things -- in Rockland and beyond. As a former professional newspaper photographer, I also show my pictures on this site, with new selections rotated in from time to time.
If you wish to respond to any of these offerings, make suggestions or lobby for a particular column, contact me at ahg@thecolumnrule.com. by using the "Contact Me" form on this site or by e-mailing to ahgunther@yahoo.com
Thanks for reading!

"The
Column Rule" refers to the revered process of old-fashioned
hot metal typesetting, in which vertical rules or thin
lines of lead separated columns of type. This careful craft
set a standard.
