All About Damon Gumbert
I am Damon Gumbert. I am a published short story writer, a digital writer for WLWT News 5 in Cincinnati, and was formerly an editor for the Cyclone's Muse literary magazine.
I worked for WLWT for two and a half years as an Alert Curator. I discovered breaking news stories, alerted the newsroom. Multiple stories that I discovered became national stories, making appearances on CNN and Good Morning America.
While working at WLWT I also wrote for the digital team, working up the breaking news stories that I would find for the web and app. I also wrote multiple sports stories, mostly focusing on FC Cincinnati, the professional soccer team in the city.
I spent a year as a News Anchor at WRST-FM Oshkosh before being promoted to News Director. In the Fall of 2018 I began hosting a Pop-Culture talk show called, "The Reel Frame of Mind."
​
I wrote, produced, and acted in a short film, Vulgar Reading, which was a semi-finalist at the Los Angeles CineFest. I was a consulting producer for a college TV show called Touch Of Reality where I wrote and acted in the second episode titled, Fight or Flight. I directed two narrative short films called Trail Legs and It's Not Cheating, Really.
