Included in her international coverage on wildlife, wilderness and the global environment are interviews with world leaders, environmental superstars and reporting on locations including South Africa, Russia, Europe, Alaska, the Amazon and throughout the Rocky Mountain West. She was the only journalist invited to cover and speak at the first-ever national environmental conference on the then-Soviet Union in Moscow.
