Lorraine Mirabella covers business news for The Baltimore Sun, focusing on the economy, employment, consumer issues and other topics, from energy to development. She's part of the enterprise and investigative team. Her stories have highlighted a
serial restaurateur who left unpaid bills in a trail of abruptly closed eateries, below-the-radar
projects that helped reverse downtown Baltimore blight and Maryland workers feeling the
brunt of federal layoffs. She also has reported award-winning work for The Sun in suburban bureaus. A New England native but nearly lifelong Maryland resident and later-in-life Orioles fan, Lorraine grew up in Montgomery County and graduated from Towson University. Email her at
