Hello! Thanks for stopping by. My name is Claire Cleveland. I'm a Denver, CO based journalist. I'm the Colorado Local Editor for The Conversation and a freelance health and science reporter. I also produce, edit and host audio, both for the radio and podcasts.
I wear many hats as a journalist, including reporting on reproductive health and justice, elder LGBT issues such as discrimination in assisted living and hospice care, and editing articles written by academic scholars on a range of topics for The Conversation. I'm also currently the host and a producer for The Buildout, a podcast from CHFA, Colorado Housing and Finance Authority, all about housing in Colorado.
My work has been published by The 19th, KFF Health News, the Colorado Sun and elsewhere. You may recognize my name from the radio, I was formerly a host and reporter for Colorado Public Radio.
I'm also a co-founder of La Serra Collective, an art non-profit focused on redefining the way we all think about and interact with art, with my wonderful husband, John Domenico.
When I'm not working, you can find me taking long (very long) walks with our dog, Lucy and our daughter, Flora, reading or teaching and practicing hot yoga at CorePower (click to see my teaching schedule).
I'm always looking for story ideas, collaborations or to talk shop -- best way to reach me is to send me a note through the form below.
