Andrea Bruce's work from Damascus, Syria was published in the March issue of National Geographic.
National Geographic also featured Andrea in an interview about her experience working in Damascus, showing a rare glimpse of life under the regime.
"A city I’ve always loved has become a tense bubble surrounded by encroaching chaos and violence," she said. "Followed by government-approved escorts, I was only allowed to leave my hotel at specific times; searching for the real Damascus under their wary and watchful eyes. Nevertheless, what I eventually found were people, living in the shadows of an over-crowded city, who largely didn’t take sides and whose loyalty was largely undefined. As in most of the world, people simply want to live their lives."
Her tearsheet in the print edition of National Geographic is below.
