Keith Dinsmore

Keith Dinsmore, an Iowa native, has owned and published more than 20 community newspapers in Iowa and Missouri and once edited the Des Moines Magazine. A graduate of Truman State University, he has authored two books and was named a Master Columnist by the Iowa Newspaper Association.

Keith has been involved in every contested presidential caucus campaign since 1976 when he signed on with Jimmy Carter. He has also worked as a media specialist with Hill and Knowlton in St. Louis, and been involved in other political campaigns throughout the country as either a consultant or press staffer.

Keith has continued to hone his political skills through the years and has helped candidates communicate with voters who live in rural America. Besides politics and the press, his passions include the St. Louis Cardinals, Iowa Hawkeyes and Missouri Tigers. Just for fun, Keith once hosted the World’s Largest Tupperware Party on his birthday and was instrumental in founding the National Bed Racing Association.
