Frank A. Aukofer, who parlayed an apprenticeship in the printing trade into a 40-year career as an award-winning newspaper reporter in Washington and Milwaukee, has died.
He passed away peacefully on the morning of July 14 surrounded by friends and family at his residence at Goodwin House in Falls Church, Va. He was 90.
Back in 2011, as part of the DC SPJ Chapter 75th Anniversary, Aukofer spoke with Dan Kubiske about his years in journalism and changes he has seen in the industry.
