Synopsis
In this witty memoir, an attractive female photojournalist recalls her assignments in Zimbabwe, Russia, Afghanistan, and Haiti, reliving the passionate love affairs she had with colleagues at each location. In doing so, she reveals a coming-of-age story about a bold young woman who, after traveling the world and taking on several lovers, eventually settled down in the United States to become a full-time mother.

Publisher's Note
Fresh out of college and passionate about photography, Deborah Copaken Kogan moved to Paris in 1988 and began knocking on photo agency doors, begging to be given a photojournalism assignment. Within weeks she was on the back of a truck in Afghanistan, the only woman—and the only journalist—in a convoy of mujahideen, the rebel “freedom fighters” at the time. She had traveled there with a handsome but dangerously unpredictable Frenchman, and the interwoven stories of their relationship and the assignment set the pace for Shutterbabe’s six chapters, each covering a different corner of the globe, each linked to a man in Kogan’s life at the time.

From Zimbabwe to Romania, from Russia to Haiti, Kogan takes her readers on a heartbreaking yet surprisingly hilarious journey through a mine-strewn decade, seamlessly blending her personal battles—sexism, battery, life-threatening danger—with the historical ones—wars, revolution, unfathomable suffering—it was her job to record.

Industry reviews
"Lucid, sardonic, exciting, if more than slightly immature."
Fleming 

"SHUTTERBABE, like all good war stories, is flashy and exciting, but it also tells the story of a tenderhearted woman who traded war's excitement for that of family life."
New York Times  (03/11/2001)

"Tone grows more engaging, and resonant, when Kogan (now 34, then 24) falls wildly in love with her future husband....But it's Kogan's war stories (with accompanying stark photos) that each....These are the passages that stay embedded like shrapnel, that exhaust, frighten, and occasionally revive. Save the speech on male female disparity. Hold the sex talk. We've heard it all. But few of us men or women have had adventures like these."
Entertainment Weekly - Gillian Flynn
