Journalist, author

Puk Damsgård is the journalist who tells stories in the present tense—directly, boldly, and without pretense, regardless of the political attitudes of the day and public authorities’ desire to exert influence. Puk Damsgård dares to go the extra mile and place herself in the line of fire, both literally during her reports on live television and figuratively.

Puk Damsgård changes the world through her portrayals, both in images and in writing. We can all see ourselves in, and be inspired by, her courage as she depicts everyday life in the world’s war-torn regions. She is curious about the unknown, the undiscovered, and the untold, and she lets her discoveries come through with strong, independent opinions, refusing to be guided by outside influences. Puk Damsgård portrays life and its stories stripped of any hidden agenda.
