Colombian investigative journalist Maria Duzan fought drug cartels with her pen. When she worked as a journalist in Bogota, she had bodyguards 24/7 and was taught to fire a gun. Maria kept reporting even after her editor was killed by Pablo Escobar’s hitmen and her newsroom was bombed by paramilitary groups. Image: Maria Duzan Credit: Semana Magazine
