He went on to study journalism at Northwestern University in Chicago and upon graduation was hired as a reporter at the Miami Herald.

While in St. Louis, Benn authored a book, “Brew in the Lou: St. Louis’ Beer Culture — Past, Present & Future.” He returned to Miami in 2013 and became the Herald’s food editor, where he oversees two weekly Tropical Life print sections as well as all food and drinks coverage on Miami.com. Benn writes about beer, food and cocktails for Beer Advocate, Esquire, Businessweek and other major publications.
