From Media Giraffe

Ilona Meagher is a 15-year airline-industry veteran who switched careers to graphic design and now online collaborative journalism and research with a citizen-journalism initiative called ePluribus Media. She is also the editor of her own online journal, PTSD Combat: Winning the War Within. Her first book, "Moving a Nation to Care: Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder and America's Returning Troops," is set to publish in May 2007. After reading of a decorated soldier's lost battle with PTSD in 2005, she decided to pursue the then under-reported topic. Her collaboration with ePluribus Media has resulted in the PTSD Timeline -- a database of reported OEF/OIF PTSD incidents -- as well as the three-part online series "Blaming the Veteran: The Politics of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and The Corroding Effect." She lives near Rockford, Ill. She attended the Media Giraffe Project summit at UMass Amherst in June 2006.
