Working life
Murphy has worked in America as a reporter for The Washington Post and for The Christian Science Monitor.[1] She has worked for the GlobalPost and The National while in Saudi Arabia. As a foreign correspondent for The Washington Post, she reported in the following regions: South Africa (following the Soweto uprising and Steve Biko slaying by the police); Cairo as bureau chief, in charge of Arab world coverage; and Kuwait during border crossing and subsequent Emirate occupation by Iraqi forces. She was part of team covering the Gulf War from Southern Arabia, and she was a reporter for three months during a tour of duty in Baghdad.[2]
In terms of her work in America, she is on top of coverage in the following areas: American immigration policy, American federal court in Alexandria, Virginia, and religion.
She has also been a public policy scholar at the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars in Washington, DC.
Murphy is probably best known for her coverage of Iraqi-occupied Kuwait and the Gulf War (1990–91) that ensued.[3]
