Ilana Ozernoy /

Ilana Ozernoy took up reporting in 2001 when she returned to Moscow 15 years after her family fled to America as political refugees. As a freelancer, she went to Afghanistan after 9/11 and wrote for the Boston Globe. She covered the fall of Kabul for U.S. News & World Report. In 2003, U.S. News sent her to Baghdad, and she stayed two years. After a stint in Washington with The Atlantic Monthly, she discovered she preferred being close to the story. Ozernoy returned to Russia to work on a book for Henry Holt and Company to be published in 2010.
