Michael Williams

I've been a journalist, magazine writer, and editor for 20 years, cutting my teeth at the Baltimore Sun's features desk. My features and cover stories have appeared in a host of national magazines, including Civil War Times, America's Civil War, American History, Gun Digest, and World War II Magazine, among others. I've covered everything from breaking news and true crime to science and entertainment.

At CD Media, which encompasses both OPEreviews.com and Protoolreviews.com, I've served as managing editor/web producer and associate editor/web producer.

As associate editor/web producer at Pro Tool Reviews, I'm intimately familiar with the full spectrum of outdoor gear, safety equipment, apparel, and the world of professional landscaping. I handle everything from best lists and hands-on reviews to developments in the outdoor power equipment industry and local, state, and federal environmental legislation.

In short, life as an editor and journalist is a busy and constant learning experience in a wide variety of topics and fields.

On the side, I'm a semi-professional Classic Rock historian, archivist, and overall fanatic who focuses on the evolution of rock from 1955 through the early 80s.
