SUMMARY:2026 Chrysalis Inspired Event featuring Lynsey Addario
DESCRIPTION:INSPIRED is Chrysalis Foundation’s signature annual luncheon—a gathering that celebrates leadership\, courage\, and collective action in support of women and girls in Greater Des Moines. This year\, we welcome Lynsey Addario\, an American photojournalist who has been covering conflict\, humanitarian crises\, and women’s issues in the Middle East and Africa for The Atlantic\, The New York Times\, and National Geographic for more than two decades. In 2015\, Addario wrote a New York Times best-selling memoir\, “It’s What I Do\,” chronicling her personal and professional life as a photojournalist coming of age in the post-9/11 world. In 2018\, she released her first solo collection of photography\, “Of Love and War\,” published by Penguin Press. Addario’s life was recently the subject of Love+War\, a feature film by Oscar-winning directors Jimmy Chin and Chai Vasarhelyi.
