Clyde Bradley began his freelance writing career as a Reader/Columnist writing editorial columns for the Opinion Page of the Post Tribune in Gary, IN back in 1997. From there, Clyde migrated to Myrtle Beach, SC where he began writing entertainment columns, CD and concert reviews, celebrity interviews and feature articles for local and regional entertainment magazines and websites. Clyde also served as a weekly freelance contributor to the local sports page of a small weekly newspaper for two years. Clyde made the crossover from columnist, interviewer, reviewer and feature writer to nonfiction author in 2012 with the release of his first book, Stiffing the Working Class, which chronicles growing concerns in the 21st Century over the rapid disappearance of blue collar jobs that pay a livable wage by American standards.
