In her current role at 60 Minutes, Lara Logan helps us understand the political and human conflicts around the world, including Syria, Pakistan, Iraq, Afghanistan, Israel, Palestine and Egypt. A journalist who heads straight into hostile places not for spectacle but for the sake of our understanding the real issues of our time, she was one of the few reporters in Baghdad when the U.S. military entered the city, reporting live in the square as the statue of Saddam fell. Logan was beaten and sexually assaulted while covering the celebrations in Tahrir Square following Hosni Mubarak’s resignation, but despite this tragedy, she remains a fearless interviewer asking tough questions of today's most powerful people.
