Colleen “Koky” Dishon
I am working on collecting images for my article on women’s page editor Colleen “Koky” Dishon that is now scheduled to run this summer in a Ohio history publication. Koky, who went on to become the first woman on the Chicago Tribune’s masthead, created the WomaNews section in the 1990s – pictured above. It was a revised, modern section that was also controversial.
I wrote for the section several times in the 1990s and loved reading it. The section was later eliminated.
