Julia Doran
Julia comes from a large family of storytellers and has always been drawn to languages and the power of narrative. A formal interest in journalism developed the summer before she started her degree at The University of Toronto, when she interned with the editorial department at Vanity Fair. A subsequent internship at a small publication from her native Ottawa and part-time work as an editorial clerk for Maclean’s in Toronto further focused this interest in long-form reporting. Since graduating with an English major and Spanish and History minors, she has worked in online advertising and freelanced for a Guatemalan publication and a Canadian snowboard magazine. But after documenting a year of travel in Eastern Europe, India, Northern Africa and Latin America with film, digital photography and video footage, Julia has decided she would also like to pursue long-form reporting in the documentary form. She is now eager to learn how best to capture personal histories using visual narrative at NYU.
