About Morgan
I'm an American-born freelance reporter and producer based in Prague, Czech Republic. My journalism has appeared in print, online, and on the radio for places like The Atlantic, GQ, Politico EU, National Public Radio, BBC, Travel + Leisure, Lucky Peach, and Radio Prague (Český rozhlas).
As a producer, I’ve worked with the brilliant minds at Tortoise on the award-winning Slow Newscast and the latest season of ThinkIn with James Harding, a series of panel discussions on Xi Jinping’s China. I’ve produced many episodes of True Spies, the hit series hosted by Oscar-nominee Vanessa Kirby. And I created, produced, and edited Foreign Insiders, a podcast series about migration to the Czech Republic.
