Author name: Mike Richman

Here’s my career by the numbers. I’m a veteran journalist who has authored four books: George Allen: A Football Life; The Redskins Encyclopedia; the Washington Redskins Football Vault; and Joe Gibbs: An Enduring Legacy. My fifth book, the Washington Pro Football Encyclopedia, will hit the shelves in August 2026. I’ve also written thousands of feature and news articles, showing a flair for telling compelling human interest stories, as well as press releases, background papers and talking points, among other types of journalistic and promotional material. My articles have focused on a wide range of topics and have appeared in a myriad of major publications, including The Washington Post, The Baltimore Sun, and Sports Illustrated magazine. I’ve also written and voiced scripts for television and radio broadcast, hosted a podcast and have interviewed countless interesting people.

Commanders owner Josh Harris will launch a true rebuild of the team this offseason, putting his official stamp on the once-storied NFL franchise.
