Adam Wahlberg

I am the editor of Minnesota Alumni magazine.

For several years I ran a one-man boutique book imprint. In that period I put out several high-profile titles, including Julie Barton’s memoir Dog Medicine, which became a New York Times bestseller; Adam Levy’s album Naubinway, which made top 10 lists around the world; Janet Burroway’s critically acclaimed memoir Losing Tim, and Mark Mallman’s beloved memoir The Happiness Playlist.

I was the executive editor of Minnesota Law & Politics for 14 years before becoming editor-in-chief of Super Lawyers. 

I’ve written for Citizens League Voice, Delta Sky, Franchise Times, Minnesota Monthly, MinnPost, Mpls/St.Paul, MSNBC, Next Avenue, Star Tribune, Tennis, Twin Cities Business and many other publications. You can find samples of my work on this site.

I hold a master’s degree in public affairs from the Humphrey School at the University of Minnesota and a bachelor’s degree in journalism from St. Cloud State University.

Away from the keyboard, I put a lot of miles on my Asics, haven’t missed a Wilco concert since 1997, and spend a lot of time in bookstores. My dream dinner party would include Elvis Costello, Marilynne Robinson, Dana Gould, Tina Fey, and Andre Agassi.
