His clients include the Los Angeles Times, MSNBC, Reuters and the Washington Post. Storm told the students that newspapers are no longer print organizations but multimedia companies.  x Presented at the convention was Storm's documentary Marlboro Marine. The original story and photos, by Luis Sinco, were published in the Times on Nov. 10, 2004.  Sinco is a graduate of Cal State Long Beach's journalism department. x The printed project in the Times was designed by Gary Metzger, a Pulitzer Prize winner.
