SQL Data Reader – handling Null column values

by

I’m using a SQLdatareader to build POCOs from a database. The code works except when it encounters a null value in the database. For example, if the FirstName column in the database contains a null value, an exception is thrown. 

employee.FirstName = sqlreader.GetString(indexFirstName);

What is the best way to handle null values in this situation?
