A fond farewell
Dear Vanguard Fans:
After five memorable years, we are sad to announce that Vanguard’s executive producer Laura Ling will be moving on from Current Media. In a letter addressed to the staff, Laura felt it was time to focus on starting a family and the writing of a book with her sister Lisa Ling about her captivity last summer in North Korea and the bond they shared that helped them get through it.
“Working at Current and leading the Vanguard team has been the highlight of my career.” wrote Laura Ling. “It has been challenging, but thoroughly rewarding; intense, but fun. I’m extremely proud of the Vanguard team, which is working so passionately to raise awareness about some of the most important issues affecting our world. I will continue to be a champion of their work and of Current as a whole.”

This is sad news but I'm happy that she is focusing on what she is. I remember sitting in middle school watching her on channel doing stories that where far beyond the scope of the program. I will miss being wowed by her passion and skill as a journalist. I look forward to the book!
