Kate Adie, OBE, former Chief News Correspondent to the BBC, will speak to the Festival at 3.30pm on Saturday 3rd October 2009. Like Graham Greene who began his working life as a journalist and who visited war zones as a reporter, Kate is famous for her willingness to take personal risks in the interests of telling the truth about a story. The title of her talk will be Into Danger, which picks up the first two words of the title of her autobiographical book Into Danger: Risking Your Life for Work which was published last year. Kate's talk may allude to the similarities between her own life and the situations in which Greene found himself, but it will focus upon her own work.
