Peter Nickeas

As an overnight crime reporter, the Chicago Tribune's Peter Nickeas knows parts of city life other people turn away from. His job is to chase chaos and mayhem in this town while trying to make sense of it all. With spring and consequently more shootings approaching, we have a frank chat about his life in journalism and Chicago after dark.

"There are very few black and white anything in this city. That's one thing overnights has taught me."
