Katherine Baldwin

About:

Over my 17 years in journalism, I’ve been a foreign correspondent, covered UK politics, international news and natural disasters for Reuters and I now focus on real-life stories, mostly about women, from body image to fertility to hair loss.

Where we'll see your work:

The Daily Mail, The Guardian, Psychologies Magazine, Time Magazine, other national newspapers and women’s magazines

Most difficult story you've found for a commissioning editor:

Teenagers to talk about body image and appear named and photographed, from an anorexic girl to an overweight boy. Or women to speak about the taboo of infertility and female friendship.

Feature you are most proud of:

Dating with baby goggles on: the perils of dating to the rhythm of the biological clock as a 40-year-old female. Or the blight of rape in Haiti’s post-quake makeshift camps

Area of expertise: Real-life, women, body image, eating disorders, fertility, dating, health.
