I have some fantastic information. Livia Albeck-Ripka, who has documented for The Occasions in various roles for a number of a long time, such as a 5-month temporary stint on Express this year, will be signing up for the newsroom forever, reporting for the group from California.

Livia has already contributed significantly to The Times. She was a fellow on the Local climate desk right here in New York, a reporter in the Australia bureau and a freelancer for many desks out West. Her function has been highlighted on The Every day and The New York Occasions Offers, our documentary collection, and throughout the newspaper. She has a B.A. from the College of Melbourne, and a master’s from Columbia’s journalism college.

In 2018, she was awarded a Rosalynn Carter Psychological Wellness Journalism Fellowship for her creating on psychological well being. She has also published for The Atlantic, Countrywide Geographic, VICE Journal, Quartz and The Outline. In 2014, she was awarded a residency at Fabrica, a artistic studio in Italy, the place she worked on narrative jobs and wrote for Shades journal.

She has also finished stints on stay briefings about the coronavirus pandemic, the war in Ukraine and, most not long ago, Hurricane Ian.
