Journalists Jill Leovy and Lynsey Addario know a thing or two about working in dangerous environments. Here they give their own personal perspective on the dangerous places they have been and discuss the issue of women working in dangerous environments.

Leovy is a crime reporter for the LA Times who has spent a decade embedded with the Los Angeles Police Department homicide unit. She is author of Ghettoside: Investigating a Homicide Epidemic, about which she speaks at another festival event.

Addario is a Pulitzer Prize-winning photojournalist who has documented life under the Taliban and covered conflicts in Afghanistan, Iraq, Lebanon, Darfur and the Congo. She is author of It’s What I Do: A Photographer’s Life of Love and War.
