Mick Sullivan

Mick Sullivan is a veteran investigative reporter who brings a "blue-collar" sensibility to the coverage of the South Jersey Shore. After decades of reporting on urban labor and municipal grit, Mick now turns his sharp eye toward the coast for TheSunPapers, focusing on the local politics of the boardwalk, the economics of the fishing industry, and the year-round struggles of the "locals" who keep the shore towns running long after the tourists head north. Known for his no-nonsense prose and his skepticism of flashy developers, "Sully" is a trusted voice for those who want the unvarnished truth about Cape May and Atlantic Counties. Mick’s roots in the region go back to his childhood summers in Wildwood, but his reporting is far from a vacation. He treats the Jersey Shore like a beat, not a resort, often uncovering the municipal budget discrepancies and environmental challenges that face coastal residents. When he isn’t at a council meeting, he’s likely fishing off a pier or arguing about the merits of a real Atlantic City sub over a city hoagie.
