Sheryl WuDunn has reported from inside some of the toughest regimes in the world, from Myanmar to North Korea. As a foreign correspondent for The New York Times, WuDunn covered China and won a Pulitzer with her husband, Nicholas D. Kristof, for their coverage of the Tiananmen Square democracy movement in Beijing and the military crackdown that ended it. She was the first Asian-American to win a Pulitzer. Her experiences trekking though Asia over the years led her to co-write with her husband a novel, Half the Sky: From Oppression to Opportunity for Women Worldwide, illuminating the stories of women who have suffered under their society’s feudal attitudes toward women and how those women overcame these problems.
