Scott Maucione
Health ReporterScott is the Health Reporter for WYPR.
His interest in journalism started at a young age when he decided to write a magazine about his elementary school. Needless to say, the issues were limited. He did, however, go on to study Journalism and Political Science at the University of Maryland and then get his Master’s from American University in Applied Politics.
He spent nine years covering the military at Federal News Network and Inside Defense before moving to public radio where he covers everything from the opioid crisis to mental health.
He is the recipient of the National Headliner Award, two Edward R. Murrow awards, four Chesapeake AP Broadcasters Association awards, three Society of Professional Journalist Dateline awards and the Military Reporters and Editors Association Award for excellence in radio. He was also a finalist for the Robert D.G. Lewis Watchdog Award. His work has been published on NPR, Here & Now, Marketplace and The Washington Post.
In his spare time, he plays guitar, practices yoga and tries his best to cook some stellar seafood dishes.
