JORDAN'S 9/11 Photographer: Sheila Dabu Nonato for The Jordan Times
Background: Less than two months into my stint at The Jordan Times, I covered my first hard news story: the aftermath of the 2005 terrorist attacks in Jordan. I was assigned at three hospitals and reported same-day stories for about a week on the survivors and their families. I also reported on two protest rallies against the perpetrators of the attacks.
