Roberta was recently promoted to Editor at Manville.Today following the election of Founder and Editor Chris Basista to the Manville Borough Council.

Having served as Assistant Editor since Manville.Today's launch, Roberta brings a strong understanding of the news‑gathering process and a commitment to clear, unbiased communication. She will continue delivering the reliable, community‑focused coverage that residents have come to trust over the past two years.

Roberta's dedication to Manville runs deep. In 2012, at a time when many were leaving, she chose to return and re-establish her roots in the town where she grew up. Her lifelong activism and passion for civic engagement naturally led her into local politics, where she recognized the need for greater transparency between the Mayor, Council, and residents.

Her service to the community extends beyond journalism. Roberta has served on several Borough committees, including Recreation and OEM. During Hurricane Ida, she managed the animal shelter at the High School, and she played a key role in bringing the Food Pantry back to town, where she continues to volunteer monthly. Many residents also know Roberta and her beloved therapy dog, Bella, from their years of service at the Library and local schools.

As Manville continues to grow and evolve, Roberta and the Manville.Today team remain committed to expanding their coverage to include the issues and stories that matter most to the community.
