Mary Beth Sheridan has spent four decades as a reporter and editor working on international and national news, most recently as Mexico bureau chief for The Washington Post. She has covered wars and revolutions in the Middle East and Eastern Europe but has focused in recent years on transnational issues such as migration and drug trafficking. Her Spring 2026 course, “Reporting Across Borders,” will use journalistic tools to analyze and produce compelling stories about globalization, focusing on the links between the United States and Latin America.
