Salvador Witness: The Life and Calling of Jean Donovan
Salvador Witness recounts a remarkable journey from the affluent suburbs of Connecticut to the jungles and refugee camps of El Salvador. The murder of Jean Donovan and her fellow churchwomen by Salvadoran troops in 1980 made headlines around the world. This book tells the story behind that event but also the story of a young woman, her growth, bravery, and humanity--and the price she was willing to pay for them. Ana Carrigan has had a distinguished career in documentary film and journalism. Roses in December, the film she co-produced and directed about Jean Donovan, received an Emmy nomination, a Christopher Award, and was the basis for this book. She is the author of The Palace of Justice: A Colombian Tragedy.
