Longtime NPR foreign correspondent Anne Garrels has died. She was known for her brave work covering war zones and conflicts around the world.
Anne Garrels, long time foreign correspondent for NPR, died on Wednesday of lung cancer. She was 71 years old.
When she arrived at NPR in 1988, she already had a lot of experience under her belt — including 10 years in television news at ABC, where she was bureau chief in both Moscow and Central America. That bravery led Garrels into many war zones. And when it came to covering a war, she was there at the beginning, in the middle of the battle, and at the peace table. She was the kind of reporter who would drive alone across a war zone if that's what it took to get the story., Garrels insisted that she was not a"war junkie.""I didn't set out to be a war correspondent," she said."The wars kept happening.
"She went everywhere, she was on every continent. I looked at her stories on the NPR archives, and there were 90 pages. And on all kinds of subjects, not just political, not just military but social, artistic, cultural," Clark said.

t.A.T.u's 'All The Things She Said' still runs through our heads : It's Been a MinuteThe Russian pop duo t.A.T.u released their smash single 'All The Things She Said' 20 years ago this week. To this day, the bop is a queer staple, but should it be?From t.A.T.u to Britney Spears and Madonna, the early 2000s were full of straight women dabbling in queerness for profit. In this episode, senior producer Barton Girdwood sits down with author Jill Gutowitz (Girls Can Kiss Now) to talk about how these moments gave young queer millennials a taste of their sexuality even though it was all an act. They discuss whether or not a false representation can still be meaningful, and how the basic formula of 'All The Things She Said' gets lesbianism right — even though so much of it is wrong.You can follow us on Twitter NPRItsBeenAMin and email us at IBAMnpr.org.
