About Chuck Culpepper

By Liam Beatus

Culpepper grew up in Norfolk, Virginia before attending the University of Virginia.

Upon graduation, after a short stint at the Suffolk News-Herald, he packed up and headed to Los Angeles where he spent a majority of his time writing about golf and tennis, as well as high school sports.

Culpepper worked his way up and eventually covered Wimbledon and the British Open during his time in Los Angeles.

As a bonus, he was a member of the sports team for the Herald Examiner that covered the 1988 World Series.

Following stretches at National Sports Daily, The Oregonian, Newsday and Sports on Earth, Culpepper settled into his current position at The Washington Post.
