Eman Mohammed was born in Tabouk, a small village in Saudi Arabia and educated in Gaza City, Palestine, where she started her photojournalism career at the age of 19 in 2006. Eman's work focuses on documenting the Israeli/Palestinian conflict, including invasions and wars that have frequently occurred in the area and the formation of armed militant groups in the strip. The main body of her work has moved from covering Israel's blitz bombing of Gaza in 2008-2009 and the death perpetrated through Israeli shelling of the territory in a hard news style, to a long series of issues concerning women. Eman’s photographs expanded to reach other countries within the Middle East through her two recent projects Diaspora of the arab world and iWar. She is a TED Fellow.
