Maria Ressa

Maria Ressa is the CEO, co-founder, and President of Rappler, the Philippines’s top digital news site. She is the current Nobel Laureate and winner of the Nobel Peace Prize 2021, the first Filipino in history to do so.

Ressa grew up in America and studied at Princeton University before working as a journalist in Asia for over 36 years. She has endured multiple arrests by the Duterte government, which is the subject of the 2020 Sundance Film Festival documentary, A Thousand Cuts.

Ressa won the UNESCO World Press Freedom Prize 2021 and was TIME Person of the Year in 2018. She was named by TIME as one of the most inspiring and influential women of the century. She has also been featured in Prospect’s Top 50 Thinkers, Bloomberg 50, and the BBC’s Top 100 Women. She has received countless awards for her work, including the Golden Pen of Freedom Award from the World Association of News Publishers.

Before founding Rappler, Ressa investigated terrorism in Southeast Asia, opening and running CNN’s Manila Bureau and Jakarta Bureaus, before heading the largest news group in the Philippines. She authored Seeds of Terror in 2003 and From Bin Laden to Facebook in 2012.
