Christine Buckley's travels have taken her to five continents and taught her to shear sheep, cultivate rice, sail without a G.P.S. and edit a state-run newspaper with a straight face. Her LA Weekly cover story on human trafficking was a 2008 LA Press Club and Maggie Award finalist and led to the book Slave Hunter, co-written with Aaron Cohen for Simon and Schuster Spotlight (May 2009). Christine has contributed to National Public Radio, The New York Times, Russian Newsweek, and Current TV, among others. Her reporting has also won her an Associated Press award. Born in New York and currently based in Paris, in 2009 she plans to return to Southeast Asia to work with human trafficking victims.
