Three years with the @opcofamerica. One press card I’m unreasonably attached to. 🧿 My first two political commentaries, which exist because @patricia.kranz took a chance on me. 🫂 @lwalsh242, consider this my very public, very shameless request: can I pitch again? 🦋 #PressCard #OverseasPressClubOfAmerica #FreedomToPublish #OverseasJournalist #PoliticalCommentary

🌻 Patricia Kranz’s @patricia.kranz retirement marks the close of an important chapter at @opcofamerica and I’m so grateful for everything she has brought to the organisation through her experience, professionalism and kindness. 🫂 🫶🏻 At the same time, I’m genuinely excited to welcome Lauren Walsh @lwalsh242 to @opcofamerica and to work with her as this next chapter begins. 🤝 Change always carries a little nostalgia, but it also brings new energy, new ideas and new possibilities. 🦋 Wishing @patricia.kranz a wonderful and well-earned retirement, and @lwalsh242 every success as she joins the team. Looking forward to what comes next. 🪪 #OverseasPressClubOfAmerica #WomenInJournalism #WomenInMedia #PressClub #MediaLeadership

Published in the Spring 2026 issue of ZEKE Magazine: Between Cups of Coffee: Damascus Adjusts to a Post-Assad Reality By Lauren Walsh @lwalsh242 Photography by Hosam Katan @hosam_katan Translation and reporting support by Omar Khallouf @omarykhalloufy After more than a decade of civil war in Syria and the eventual collapse of Bashar al-Assad’s regime, the Al-Rawda Café continued as a fixture of Damascus. The café held a unique history, inseparable from art, politics, and activism. Under Assad, it was a gathering place for government politicians, intellectuals, writers, and artists alike– many of whom opposed the regime. Over long conversations and countless cups of Syrian tea, writer Lauren Walsh and photographer Hosam Katan came to know many of the café’s regulars who shared their thoughts, experiences, concerns, and hopes for the future of the country. Together, Lauren and Hosam documented this space not merely as a café, but as a social world shaped by war and politics, and one that continues to thrive as a vital space of community in Damascus.
