Nashville's local news and NPR station
Editor’s Note: WPLN News has discontinued this mapping effort as of Sept. 14. After delays, the state of Tennessee is now publishing its own statewide database of school-based cases here.
Rachel Iacovone (YAH-kuh-VOAN-ee) is WPLN's Director of Multiplatform Publishing, which is a long way of saying she leads all the ways the news reaches you (this website, social media, This Is Nashville and more). She began her public radio career covering politics in Florida during the 2016 presidential race. In 2019, Rachel came to Nashville as a local Morning Edition, and later All Things Considered, host before her passion for data deep dives, visualizations, photography and social media storytelling pulled her off air and put her online fully.
