RadioStPete.com INSIDER news director interviewed well-known author and journalist Cathy Salustri, publisher of The Gabber covering Gulfport…and beyond serving South Pinellas County and our Gulf Beaches in Florida including South Pasadena, St. Pete Beach, Treasure Island, Madeira Beach, West St. Petersburg, South St. Petersburg, Tierra Verde, Pass-a-Grille, Pinellas Point, Kenneth City, and more!! Her wit and insights into the local community, Florida kitsch and history and a love of arts and culture has assembled a young team of talented writers who deliver the newspaper weekly and a podcast as well. It’s full of events, commentary, pets, news, interviews and what’s happening at the library and senior center, fun to read and full of chatty but pithy content. https://thegabber.com/
About Cathy Salustri from https://cathysalustri.com/ : Cathy Salustri works out of Gulfport, Florida, travels across Florida on foot, bike, boat, or car to places the Interstate bypassed long ago, as well as those spots where natural beauty has survived the onslaught of overpopulation. She attended the University of Central Florida, and earned her undergraduate degree at the University of Tampa finding the Florida Studies MLA program at the University of South Florida St. Petersburg. Cathy has written travel pieces for USA Today, Visit Florida, regional magazines and local press. You can find all her travel writing at the greatfloridaroadtrip.com. Under the guidance of Florida scholar and writer Gary Mormino, Cathy wrote what she calls “possibly the least academic master’s thesis ever,” logging almost 5,000 miles retracing driving tours from the WPA Federal Writer’s Project Guide to the Southernmost State in search of Florida’s forgotten destinations. That work became Backroads of Paradise, a travel narrative about her journeys along Florida’s backroads, published by the University Press of Florida in 2016. In 2017, Cathy and her book appeared in the New York Times. Cathy started freelancing after quitting a government job in a self-described “fit of self-respect” in 2003. Except for a brief few years where she thought she might be suited for office work and thusly took the arts & entertainment editor post at Creative Loafing Tampa, she’s freelanced since then. Her freelance work included 12 years at The Gabber Newspaper, where she covered hyperlocal news and then became the publisher in 2020. ##nanettewiser #CathySalustri #TheGabber #Gulfport #localnews #tampabay #radio #radiostpete
