Andrew Hood
realvail local since: November 1, 2007
Andrew Hood was editor of the Vail Daily when he somewhat reluctantly hired RealVail founder David O. Williams as sports editor. Hood enjoyed a distinguished two-year stint at the helm of the Daily in the early 1990s (despite Williams’ shenanigans) before moving on to bigger and better things.
In the mid-90s Hood moved to Europe to cover cycling for a variety of publications before ultimately landing the gig as European correspondent for Boulder-based Velo News. His tenure perfectly coincided with the rise of Lance Armstrong, and Hood has authored two books on the Texan.
He also has worked the past two Winter Olympics for the Olympic News Service, again reluctantly bringing Williams and RealVail cofounder Tom Boyd into the fold for the 2006 Winter Game in Torino, Italy. Read about some of his exploits in the Real Rhetoric section of realvail.com.
Hood now lives in Leon, Spain, with his wife, Maria Jesus. His views on traveling in Europe will appear more or less on a regular basis in this space.
