Who’s Behind the Mask?

Geoff Boucher always wanted to be a mild- mannered reporter working for a major metropolitan newspaper ... or maybe a wookiee. He came to The Times in 1991 and covered crime, politics and music before becoming the paper's go-to geek. His legion of super contributors include Dawn C. Chmielewski, Noelene Clark, Ben Fritz, Lisa Fung, John Horn, Susan King, Gina McIntyre, Alex Pham, Jevon Phillips, Scott Sandell, and Steve Zeitchik.
