Story: The Martuscello Dynasty: Power and Patronage in New York Prisons
Client: NY Focus
Art Director: Maha Ahmed

About: The story is a longform investigative profile of Dan Martuscello, the current commissioner of New York's Department of Corrections, and his family — his brother and sister are both assistant commissioners. His family dynasty has operated a patronage system in the department for many, many years. It's partially about how he manages his image as a reformer within the context of that family legacy.
