Event: Alex Crawford - Reflections

Alex Crawford's Libya coverage won her widespread acclaim when she travelled into the conflict with rebel forces. The first journalist to make it into Tripoli after it fell to rebel forces, she coloured her career further with the occasional arrest, detainment, bullet, IED, tear-gassing and mortar shell.

One of the most decorated journalists in the field, Alex Crawford is the only person to have been awarded three Royal Television Society Journalist of the Year awards. She has also recently been presented with the James Cameron Memorial Award 2011 for her coverage of the fighting in Libya and the Middle East.

Brought up in Nigeria and Zambia, Alex began her journalistic career at The Wokingham Times. She later joined Sky News in 1989, where she has worked ever since; and is now special correspondent. 

Vin Ray will be speaking to her about her career as a foreign correspondent at this CoJo 'Reflections' event at the Frontline Club.
