Biography
I'm an award-winning senior feature writer and former foreign correspondent with The Guardian newspaper in London, where my work mainly focuses on longform international reportage but also includes analysis, explainers and interviews. You can see my Guardian profile and my collected articles by clicking here. I have reported for the Guardian from more than 30 countries and was the paper's chief Paris correspondent for nearly 10 years. My reporting has been shortlisted for Feature Writer of the Year (British Press Awards), Best Digital Innovation (UK Foreign Press Association Awards) and Best Feature (Online Journalism Awards). I wrote the Guardian's groundbreaking, critically acclaimed multimedia interactive Firestorm - also an ebook - which has been shown in competition at documentary film festivals around the world and won the 2013 Walkley Award for multimedia storytelling. My work using social media to report the impact on ordinary people of the economic crisis in southern Europe has also won international recognition. I'm a fluent French speaker and am a regular guest on French radio and television. I also co-wrote and presented a well-reviewed four-part documentary series, The Price of Property, for UK broadcaster Channel 4.
