The Pitch‘s Questionnaire with Silicon Prairie News editor Fred Bauters
Name: Fred Bauters
Occupation: Editor, Silicon Prairie News
Hometown: The Midwest. I’ve lived in Michigan, Ohio, Illinois and Indiana, but call Cleveland, and its depressing sports teams, home.
Current neighborhood: Prairie Village
Who or what is your sidekick? My wife, our two cats (which are the size of small dogs) and my Brooks Ghost running shoes.
What career would you choose in an alternate reality? An FBI agent who retires to become a high school cross-country coach. That was my coach, and he remains the coolest person I know. His nickname was “Jesus” because he’d appear out of nowhere when we were on long runs, and he had a remarkable beard. I can see myself doing that.
