Tim Marshall Biography

Tim Marshall is a leading authority on foreign affairs with more than thirty years of news reporting and presenting experience. He was Diplomatic Editor and foreign correspondent at Sky News, and before that worked for the BBC and LBC/IRN radio. He has written for many of the national newspapers including the Times, the Guardian, the Daily Telegraph, and the Sunday Times. Since his stead as a full-time news journalist, he now concentrates on writing and analysis.

Originally from Leeds, Marshall arrived at broadcasting from the road less traveled. Not a media studies or journalism graduate, in fact not a graduate at all, after a wholly unsuccessful career as a painter and decorator he worked his way through newsroom nightshifts, and unpaid stints as a researcher and runner before eventually securing himself a foothold on the first rung of the broadcasting career ladder.

After three years as IRN's Paris correspondent and extensive work for BBC radio and TV, Marshall joined Sky News. Reporting from Europe, the USA and Asia, Marshall became Middle East Correspondent based in Jerusalem.

He has reported from forty countries and covered conflicts in Croatia, Bosnia, Macedonia, Kosovo, Afghanistan, Iraq, Lebanon, Syria, and Israel. He spent the majority of the 1999 Kosovo crisis in Belgrade, where he was one of the few western journalists who stayed on to report from one of the main targets of NATO bombing raids. Marshall was in Kosovo to greet the NATO troops on the day they advanced into Pristina.

He is the author of "Prisoners of Geography," "The Age of Walls," "A Flag Worth Dying For," "The Power of Geography," and "The Future of Geography."
