Nancy Greenleese

Nancy Greenleese can't help but report from Rome, Italy. Every day seems worthy of a documentary, from her morning cappuccino with a heart design in the foam to churches that resonate with the enchanting sounds of nuns singing vespers.

The radio and print reporter also travels widely. She's covered bird-watching in Trinidad and Tobago, professional baseball in Mexico, and Brunei's obsession with the smelly fruit durian.

Ruth Kirschner

Ruth has been reporting from China since 2005. She has filed for Marketplace, Deutsche Welle, German Radio and other outlets and also writes for newspapers and magazines.

Ruth is an accomplished radio journalist. Prior to moving to China she worked for the BBC World Service in London for more than a decade, producing and editing programs such as NewsHour, The World Today and Europe Today.

"China never fails to surprise and astonish me," Ruth says. The Middle Kingdom is a difficult place to report from. Journalists face all kinds of restrictions and obstacles. "But people's courage and determination to make this a better place and fight for their rights makes working in China a tremendously rewarding experience."
