Madelyn Beck

I’m the Mountain West News Bureau reporter at Boise State Public Radio. That means I work with reporters and NPR stations around the region to cover Mountain West issues like public lands, influential court cases and the environment, among many other things.

I grew up on a ranch in Montana, but I’ve reported everywhere from North Dakota to Alaska to Washington, D.C. My last few positions included covering energy resources in Wyoming and reporting on agriculture/rural life in Illinois.

My pre-journalism jobs include (but are not limited to): ranch hand for Icelandic horses, hotel laundress, large caliber brass shell sorter/inventory, salmon processor in Alaska and waitress for a murder mystery dinner theater.
