Deborah Williams


Reporter Deborah Williams | South Shore Press

Political expert at the state and federal levels. Research Scientist. Former CEO. No reporter in Long Island can come close to the strong professional experience of our own Deborah Wiliams.

Every aspect of our lives is touched by politics and policy whether it be what you can use to kill the weeds in your yard; how clean your drinking water is; to whether America will supply weapons to another country.

Having the knowledge of the issues and the people we elect to represent us helps us hold our government accountable at every level with our vote and our voice. South Shore Press wants to keep you informed.

The South Shore Press is proud to have Deborah Williams on our reporting staff to share news and insights on state and national issues.

Deborah had been involved for over 25 years in politics, community leadership/advocacy, and not for profit leadership. With stints on staff in both the NY State Assembly and US Senate, she brings her knowledge of process, politics, and the press to our platform.

Deborah began her career as a research scientist merging over to government and then not-for-profit leadership. Her consulting arm provided consulting services in fundraising, grant writing, and compliance for a variety of organizations.

Active for years in volunteer community advocacy and government at many levels, Deborah learned the ins and outs of how things get done, and sometimes more importantly how they get stopped. Using her broad based community outreach and media skills, she worked with the community to provide information and messaging on a broad array of issues. She brought these skills to her career in government and the politics that goes with it. And, now she brings her experience and insight to us at South Shore Press.
