Meet Feven Gerezgiher
Feven Gerezgiher is a reporter and producer with Reverb, an MPR News initiative and reporting team focused on serving younger (and young-at-heart) Minnesotans.
Feven’s journalism career started with a ThreeSixty Journalism camp in high school. A decade later, she joined the Racial Reckoning: Arc of Justice initiative led by KMOJ, Ampers and the Minnesota Humanities Center, covering police trials and community reactions following the murder of George Floyd.
Before joining MPR News, Feven also freelanced for the Minnesota Spokesman-Recorder and Minnesota Native News, in addition to other local and national platforms, and worked as a mentor at the first SPEAK MPLS youth media camp.
Feven's work has contributed to several awards and distinctions for MPR News, including three Eric Sevareid Awards from the Midwest Broadcast Journalists Association.
Feven graduated from Como Park Senior High School in St. Paul and double majored in economics and global studies at the University of Minnesota Twin Cities. She is an Eritrean American millennial.
