Larry Pryor was a reporter and editor for the Los Angeles Times who led some of the papers' earliest experiments in digital journalism before moving on to full-time teaching.
Larry Pryor, a former Los Angeles Times journalist who embraced the digital world before much of the industry and whose work as a reporter and editor covering the environment spurred action on climate issues, died on July 13 of complications from Parkinson’s disease. He was 86.
storage tanks for liquefied petroleum gas in a densely populated area caught the attention of Gov. Jerry Brown, who ordered a report that ultimately recommended a series of safety and regulatory steps, according to Ben Pryor. “He was a dream to work with,” Rawitch said. “There was never a cross word, never an objection. I would write a portion and he would write a portion, then we’d both go through it together and polish what the other wrote.”At The Times, Pryor was an early proponent of adapting to changing technology, encouraging reporters to use tools such as geomapping, or using data to create maps, said Jeff Perlman, who worked for the Times for more than three decades.
“He was creating something nobody understood, which was the beginnings of the internet and digital journalism,” Saltzman said. “He was way ahead.”
