Sandi Dolbee, formerly the religion and ethics editor for The San Diego Union-Tribune, had already been retired for a long time when Arts & Entertainment Editor Michael James Rocha approached her about returning to the pages of this newspaper as a columnist for the Arts+Culture section.
Last spring, the Sunday section had undergone a major change as a result of the pandemic, with the return of faith coverage as one of the priorities. Since then, Dolbee has been writing about faith, spirituality and ethics every two weeks.
Today, she returns to the front page with a story that explores how a nation, wounded by partisanship and cultural division, heals.
