Peter Thomas Ricci brings more than a decade of journalism experience to Meatingplace, where he serves at managing editor. In that capacity, Peter not only facilitates the magazine’s production, but also writes feature articles, contributes to the publication’s twice-daily newsletter, and visits dozens of meatpacking facilities, where he learns about new approaches to labor, operations, and logistics. “I formerly edited a trade publication that covered housing and real estate, and in that role, I learned to love nuance — how things work, how things have changed, and most importantly, how my coverage can inspire the probing discussions that change perspectives.” Peter earned his B.S. in magazine journalism from Ohio University, and his MFA from Columbia College Chicago.
