Sebastian Junger

Junger in April 2013 Sebastian Junger (born January 17, 1962) is an American journalist, author and filmmaker who has reported in-the-field on dirty, dangerous and demanding occupations and the experience of infantry combat. He is the author of ''The Perfect Storm: A True Story of Men Against the Sea'' (1997) which was adapted into a major motion picture and led to a resurgence in adventure creative nonfiction writing. He covered the War in Afghanistan for more than a decade, often embedded in dangerous and remote military outposts. The book ''War'' (2010) was drawn from his field reporting for ''Vanity Fair'', that also served as the background for the documentary film ''Restrepo'' (2010) which received the Grand Jury Prize for best documentary at the 2010 Sundance Film Festival. Junger's works explore themes such as brotherhood, trauma, and the relationship of the individual to society as told from the far reaches of human experience. Provided by Wikipedia
