Miss Kathi: Saving Lives in North Korea
North Korea is one of the world’s poorest and most reclusive countries, and one of the most challenging places to deliver humanitarian aid. Yet for nearly three decades, Swiss aid worker Kathi Zellweger has been traveling to North Korea, providing aid during 75 visits and living there for five years. There are thousands of people alive today because of her work. This remarkable woman has co-written a memoir, "Miss Kathi: Saving Lives in North Korea," along with Mike Chinoy, a former CNN correspondent and repeat visitor to North Korea.
