Elizabeth Becker on three extraordinary female wartime journalists in 'You Don't Belong Here' by The Good Reading Podcast published on 2021-03-25T22:04:54Z Catherine Leroy, Frances Fitzgerald and Kate Webb arrived in Vietnam in 1967 and 1968 at the height of the war. Leroy was a French daredevil photographer; Frances Fitzgerald a blue-blood American intellectual; and Kate Webb was the first Australian woman to report on the war in Vietnam. Together these three women permanently shattered the barriers to women reporting on war in a field of journalism dominated by men. You Don't Belong Here is the story of the lives and legacy of three journalists that fills a void in the history of women and war. In this episode, Gregory Dobbs talks to Elizabeth Becker about the barriers these women faced and their extraordinary achievements in reporting on the complex and highly politicised Vietnam war.
