Dan Damon

Started out as a technical operator in the BBC radio control room.
Teamed up with his wife Sian to form a freelance news team in 1989.
Returned to BBC Radio 4 and BBC World Service in 1996.
Between 1998-2000 he undertook two Masters degrees, in Nationalism and International law.
Passionate about horse riding.

I get most excited using new technology to produce live radio from hostile situations. Be it a roof in Gaza blasted by desert winds, using a slow mobile phone link to read scripts in an Istanbul mosque or propping a satellite dish on a car roof so Mexican voters give their views uncensored.
