description: "Marie-Madeleine Riffaud was a French Resistance fighter, poet, journalist and war correspondent. After active resistance to the German occupation of France during World War II, she reported for the Communist newspaper L'Humanité and other left-wing publications on the Algerian War and on the French, and subsequently American, wars in Vietnam. Her reporting on Vietnam was informed by four years she spent in the North in the early 1950s, and in the 1960s by the connections she developed in the South with the Viet Cong."
