ABOUT CAM
Cam arrived at the StarPhoenix in 1989 after earning his journalism degree from the University of Regina. He started out covering crime and courts and then moved over to the entertainment department. Around that time, he was assigned a weekly column.
Column writing was a labour of love for Cam. A few years back, he started organizing his favorites into a book. It was just about ready to publish at the time of his death in December 2018.
Cam's partner Donella put the finishing touches on Cam's book and The Fuller Picture is the result.
Cam and Donella (aka Russ and Larissa)
"Relationships are a rich and irresistible source of inspiration for columnists. The only question is how much I can divulge before she kills me," Cam wrote. So instead, he wrote about "Russ and Larissa."
Time flies when you're having fun!
Or at least when one person's having fun. Cam and former SP arts reporter Stephanie McKay goof around during a photo shoot.
Tools of the trade?
Cam covered Saskatoon's arts and entertainment scene for nearly 30 years. No one wrote a better concert review on deadline, but no, he didn't play the guitar.
