American hostage [sound recording] : [a memoir of a journalist kidnapped in Iraq and the remarkable battle to win his release] / Micah Garen and Marie-Hélène Carleton.

Garen, Micah. (Author).

Summary:

Micah Garen and Marie-Hélène Carleton were journalists and filmmakers working in Iraq on a documentary with their Iraqi translator Amir Doshi. In the late summer of 2004, they began to wrap up their work, and Marie-Hélène returned home while Micah remained for a final two weeks of filming. As Micah and Amir were filming in a Nasiriyah market, something went horribly wrong: Micah was unmasked as a foreigner and kidnapped by militants in southern Iraq. Home in New York, Marie-Hélène awoke to a gut-wrenching phone call from Micah's mother with word of his abduction. She promised Micah's mother the impossible-- that together they would bring Micah back alive.
