FROM A DISTANCE: ANNA FIFIELD (2021)

Former Washington Post Beijing bureau chief and 2018 winner of Stanford University’s Shorenstein Journalism Award for outstanding reporting on Asia issues, Anna Fifield, returned home in 2020 to become the editor of Wellington’s Dominion Post. She reflects on her years reporting across eight Asian countries, her insights into North Korea’s leader in her critically acclaimed book The Great Successor: The Secret Rise and Rule of Kim Jong Un, and her take on where the continent is headed over the next decade, in conversation with Simon Wilson.
