Kans, ita ana October 26, 2015, To Whom It May Concern: Both as Chair of the Hamilton County Democratic Party and as an attorney who frequently handles controversial public issues, I was frequently in communication with Kimball Perry over the years. Kimball could ask tough questions and challenge for facts, but that is the role of a good reporter and Kimball certainly was that. His questions were fair, even when I might not have liked them. His reporting was accurate and objective. Kimball’s writing was always of the highest quality. He is truly an excellent communicator. Kimball is also a master of social media and recognizes that is a growing source of communication, especially among the Millenials. It is an area I'm just not particularly skilled in, though Kimball did get me to dip my toe into Twitter on occasion. All in all, T believe that Kimball could fill many roles and greatly assist an employer or anyone who was looking for help communicating a position or message. He is, in my opinion, a complete professional, highly trustworthy and I am happy to recommend him.
