Anthony has 22 years of experience covering sports and has been with the Herald for eight years.
The University of Montana grad previously covered sports at the Wenatchee World, Coeur d’Alene Press and Raton (New Mexico) Range.

She also worked as a reporter at The Olympian, Klamath Falls Herald and News, and Federal Way News.
Culverwell will be covering the cities of Richland, Kennewick, West Richland, agriculture, the ports and transportation.
