Hampton County native Michael M. DeWitt Jr. is a multiple-award-winning journalist, longtime editor of the 143-year-old The Hampton County Guardian, and author of Wicked Hampton County and Fall of the House of Murdaugh.

In 2014, he was named the Hampton County Chamber of Commerce’s Person of the Year for his service to the community.
