Douglas was longtime editor of The Morgan Messenger in Berkeley Springs, W. Va., and The Hancock News in Hancock, Md. During his newspaper career, he won many journalism awards, often for editorial writing and court coverage. He is also author of George Washington & Us, an illustrated history of the First President’s connections with the Berkeley Springs vicinity, and Joltin’ Jim: Jim McCoy’s Life in Country Music (2007), the illustrated biography of the music entrepreneur who discovered Patsy Cline.
