If you have a story idea or photo for the Hyattsville Life & Times, or if you would like to volunteer for us, please contact our new managing editor, Nigel F. Maynard, nigel@streetcarsuburbs.news.
Nigel is a longtime Hyattsville resident. You may have seen him on his walks through the city with his Great Dane.
He is also an award-winning editor and journalist. His work has appeared in publications including Architectural Record, This Old House, The Washington Post, USA Today Magazines, Arlington Magazine and Bethesda Magazine.
Nigel is committed to strengthening community journalism in his city and to bringing the Hyattsville Life & Times into the world of video on our new web platform.
We are sad to say goodbye to Griffin Limerick this summer, who has been the Hyattsville paper’s managing editor since January of 2023. Griffin has moved out of state to be closer to family. He left us on a high note, just after receiving three top awards from the National Newspaper Association for his writing in 2024: a first-place award for his editorial urging our city council to return to in-person meetings, and two second-place awards for his feature on a local amateur soccer team with Cameroonian roots and his profile of a local Japanese ice cream chef.
Our writers appreciated Griffin’s thoughtful editing and his commitment to developing and supporting each writer’s unique voice.
We can’t wait to see where the Hyattsville Life & Times goes next under Nigel’s direction.
