Cape Elizabeth recognizes survivors.

Dana Richie is a community reporter covering South Portland, Scarborough and Cape Elizabeth. Originally from Atlanta, she fell in love with the landscape and quirks of coastal New England while completing her undergraduate degree in History at Brown University, where she also wrote for the Brown Daily Herald and Brown Alumni Magazine. Her stories about Providence and Rhode Island also appeared in The Boston Globe, Rhode Island Monthly, Ocean State Stories and more. Now, she’s eager to explore the communities and stories of southern Maine. When she’s not hunting for stories, she can be found playing ultimate frisbee, searching for sea glass and reading a book on the beach.
