Description
Anne Garrels is a roving foreign correspondent for NPR's foreign desk. She earned international recognition in 2003 by being one of 16 US journalists to remain in Baghdad during the initial invasion of Iraq. Her vivid, around-the-clock reports from the city under siege gave listeners remarkable insight into the impact of the war on Baghdad and those left in the city. As US and British forces advanced on the city, Garrels remained at her post, describing the scene on the streets and reactions from those she encountered. Her experiences in Baghdad are chronicled in a new book, Naked in Baghdad (Farrar, Straus, and Giroux, September 2003). For her work in Iraq, Garrels was awarded a 2003 Courage in Journalism Award from the International Women's Media Foundation.
