LarryInFishers.com was created by Larry Lannan, a Fishers resident since 1991.  After a 28 year career as a government employee, Larry decided to retire from the civil service in 2011. Larry was an award-winning journalist before entering government service.  Larry found a gap in the news coverage in Fishers, so he decided to try his hand at starting a Web page devoted to news of Fishers only.  He began attending local government meetings. Larry has been a contributing columnist for Current in Fishers, a weekly publication mailed to everyone with a Fishers address.  He has also done some freelance writing for the Indianapolis Business Journal.  This blog had a news-gathering partnership with the Hamilton County Reporter newspaper from February 10, 2017 through July 4, 2021.  Currently, Larry writes a news summary for the monthly publication Fishers Magazine.    Beginning in 2012, Larry began writing about local news and announced the end of the news blog in March of 2020 after 8 years.  Larry saw the need to continue writing and podcasting about news in and around Fishers when the novel coronavirus pandemic upended life, especially after somehow recovering from a bout with COVID-19 himself.  So Larry continues blogging about local news, at an albeit slower pace that before.
