For thirty-three years, Tom Witosky covered Iowa politics, law, business, and sports for the Des Moines Register, reporting many major stories and gaining a reputation for innovative investigative journalism. One of the first investigative sports reporters in the country, he made sports news a regular front-page feature both at home and nationally. Witosky and his wife, Diane, are the parents of two grown children and grandparents of three children. They live in Des Moines, Iowa.
