Euna Lee Heads to Columbia Journalism School

In marked contrast to the silence that surrounded former Current TV editor Euna Lee‘s detainment in North Korea in 2009, the author, mom of Hanna, and wife of actor Michael Saldate has been keeping her Facebook followers extremely well informed about the family’s current cross-country trek. The gang packed up their LA belongings at the outset of the holiday weekend and hit the road for New York City, where Lee is enrolled in the master’s program in journalism at Columbia University.

They are tenting it along the way at various campsites, and thanks to the kind of Smartphone device that is strictly forbidden in North Korea, Lee has been uploading short video clips about everything from the closed food stop in Barstow to the windy weather in Arizona.
