The day was sunny, bright and blue when I hopped into my car and set out to find Mrs. Marty Uhlmann. Now nearly 90 years old, Mrs. Uhlmann is a generational Ozarker with deep roots in the region. She’s also the longtime newspaper correspondent for Dora, a tiny town in Ozark County, and where she grew up.
So far, she’s been writing about Dora for approximately 30 years. She represents one of a dwindling number of such chroniclers who write news items about their small communities for local papers.
In the past, these correspondents kept their neighbors connected with the larger area, sharing the comings and goings of locals, down to even who came for dinner, who was ill, and other need-to-know news. Largely, with time and technological advances, these individuals have disappeared. The hunger for this type of info still exists - now, however, it’s largely met on social media.
