Ruth Thompson, the multimedia journalist for the Scituate Mariner and scituate.wickedlocal.com, talks about the reporting behind her two-part series about sharks on the South Shore.  She shares how a conversation after a meeting lead to this series of stories and the men and women she interviewed along the way.

And uses a moment to talk about Joe Kelly of Scituate. Kelly is one of the people who Thompson has interviewed and whose words and attitude has stayed with as the years have passed.
