American Women War Correspondents in WWI
When World War I began in Europe, American journalists rushed to cover the war. Most assumed they would cover the new war as they had covered other wars, but the scale, brutality, and duration of the war required a more diverse and comprehensive type of war coverage. As Europe fully mobilized and the boundaries between battlefield and homefront blurred, many editors sought to capture a more complete picture of the war by also exploring the war from a “woman’s angle.” To discuss this “angle,” and the American women who covered the war, the World War I Podcast hosted Chris Dubbs, author of An Unladylike Profession: American Women War Correspondents in World War I.
