Sulome Anderson first met her father 鈥� journalist Terry Anderson 鈥� at the American Embassy in Damascus. She was seven years old and he had just been released from nearly seven years as a hostage in Lebanon. She desperately wanted to build a relationship with him, even going so far as to become a war correspondent herself and tracking down and meeting one of his captors. But Terry鈥檚 traumatic experiences made the task very challenging. When she was nearly kidnapped in the Middle East herself, she became determined to break out of the 鈥渃ycle of fascination with war鈥� that had bedevilled the family. In this moving interview recorded shortly after Terry鈥檚 death she speaks candidly about the pressures they faced.
