She became a correspondent for The Irish Times in 1996, after resigning, in the wake of the Qana massacre, from Time, where she was Beirut bureau chief, in protest at the reluctance of its editors to print anything critical of Israel. She regularly reported from Iraq following the 2003 US-led invasion thereof. She has been a guest contributor to many broadcast and print outlets. Marlowe is a leading journalist on the Middle East as well as domestic French politics. For her work, she was made Chevalier of the Légion d'Honneur in 2006. She is a regular contributor to Newstalk 106 in Ireland. While based in Washington D.C. for The Irish Times, Marlowe traveled twice to Haiti reporting on the immediate aftermath of its catastrophic earthquake in January 2010, and again in July 2010. Marlowe has written three books: The Things I've Seen (2010), Painted with Words (2011) and Love in a Time of War (2021). The last book is a memoir of the period she worked with Fisk. References
