Eduardo Barraza

Eduardo Barraza is a multimedia journalist with over two decades of experience. When he began his career, he specialized in photojournalism working for various newspapers and magazines. Later, he established an international journalistic service that provided stories and photographs to publications in Mexico and the United States. In 2002, he founded Barriozona Magazine, a bilingual print publication that in 2006 developed into an E-zine to reach a greater audience. Barraza is also the author of the book titled "The Shoes of the Immigrant and Other Writings". As journalism continues to progress and is reinventing itself, Barraza has tapped into the use of digital resources to reinforce the power of a press that presents the voice of the people as opposed to "being the voice" of the people. As he sees new challenges arise for journalism, Barraza strives to uphold the true tenets of his beloved profession, among them truth, objectivity, and independence.
