BUSINESS & ECONOMICS
Murray is an expert on the national movement
to promote economic equality through grassroots campaigns for
a living wage and middle-class jobs. Her articles in The Nation
have been included in scholarly anthologies.
POLITICS
Her long-time involvement in social justice work informs Murray's behind-the-scenes reporting and writing on politics.
MIND/BODY/FITNESS
Her martial arts studies (she's a second-degree
black belt) underlie Bobbi's writing about ways to integrate
the mental, physical and spiritual in living a healthy life.
INVESTIGATIVE
Conventional wisdom calls DNA crime-scene evidence infallible–but Murray's investigative reporting finds holes in that assumption. She has also covered political obstacles to reform in the Los Angeles Police Department. Her series about an off-duty LAPD officer's fatal shooting of a jewelry vendor calls the department's official story into question.
CULTURE
Bobbi has written on entertainment industry issues, including runaway production. She has covered Irish-American artists, movies, theater and books along
with Chicano/Mexican arts and culture.
HUMOR
Don't bad-mouth The King: Bobbi's Elvis Op-Ed piece for the Los Angeles Times reflects the low-key sense of humor you'll find in much of her work.
