Your A-List: Best Statesman Columnist
Having worked with Holloway for a couple of years now, I can attest that not only is she a hard worker, and one passionate about television, she is kind, affable, generous and a pretty saucy smart aleck, to boot.
Holloway, who received 42 percent of the vote, began covering television for the Statesman in 1979, and over the past 30 years, has become one of the most trusted and respected voices at the paper, as well as a writer beloved by much of her audience.
For those of you who did not see the farewell package that ran online and in the paper on Tuesday, here are some links of interest regarding our diminutive TV columnist who will be missed dearly and leave behind some very big shoes to fill.
