Clarissa Ward: On All Fronts
About the Event:
CNN Chief Correspondent Clarissa Ward has spent her career reporting on what war looks like in this day and age. A world-renowned journalist, Ward has witnessed first-hand the front lines of traditional battlefields replaced with the asymmetrical warfare of the modern era. On All Fronts recounts Ward’s personal experience covering the defining events of the 21st century, from the Iraq War to the Syrian Uprising to the ascent of ISIS. Join Ward at CHF with Project& Artistic Director Jane M. Saks, to learn about a journalist’s view of a world characterized by widespread and nonstop conflict.
