Notă biografică

Donovan Webster has written two books and co-authored a third. His first book, Aftermath: The Remnants of War, received Canada's Leonard Gelber Prize and was turned into a television documentary. He has also written dozens of articles for major magazines including Vanity Fair, Esquire, The New Yorker, the New York Times Magazine, and National Geographic. His writing often has highly charged political content: For example, he personally interviewed the famous hooded Iraqi prisoner in 2005, and that encounter resulted in "The Man in the Hood" in Vanity Fair. His 2004 Vanity Fair article "The Making of a Sniper," about Lee Boyd Malvo, was nominated for a National Magazine Award. He has recently been centrally involved in the Running the Sahara project, a 111-day run from West Africa to the Sinai being produced as a documentary film by Matt Damon.
