From 9/11 to Today: The Forces That Shaped Two Decades of War Reporting

Jane Ferguson, a visiting McGraw Professor of Writing in the Program in Journalism, is an international correspondent for PBS NewsHour and a contributor to The New Yorker. Most recently based in Beirut, she has reported from throughout the Middle East, Africa and South Asia, and in 2019 won the George Polk Award for Foreign Television Reporting and an Emmy Award for News and Documentary. Discussant Amaney Jamal is the Edwards S. Sanford Professor of Politics and director of the Mamdouha S. Bobst Center for Peace and Justice.

The Humanities Council’s Program in Journalism invites faculty, graduate students, and staff to participate in the next in our series of events where distinguished visiting journalists discuss their work and pressing issues of the day with faculty from a variety of disciplines. These lunchtime talks offer intimate looks inside the work of colleagues and an opportunity for dialogue across specialties.

This event will take place online via Zoom. Attendees must register in advance and note their Princeton affiliation.
