Riverbend (blogger)

Riverbend's weblog entries were first collected and published as Baghdad Burning, (with a foreword by the investigative journalist James Ridgeway), and Baghdad Burning II, , (also with an introduction by James Ridgeway and Jean Casella). They have since been translated and published in numerous countries and languages. In 2005, Baghdad Burning won third place for the Lettre Ulysses Award for the Art of Reportage and in 2006 it was longlisted for the Samuel Johnson Prize. Baghdad Burning has also been made into several dramatic plays, mostly produced in New York City. BBC Radio 4 broadcast a five-episode dramatization of her blog, "Baghdad Burning", on the ''Woman's Hour'' serial, on each day from 18 to 22 December 2006. ==See also==
