Arezou Rezvani is a senior editor for NPR's Morning Edition and founding editor of Up First, NPR's daily news podcast.
Much of her work centers on people experiencing some of the worst days of their lives. She's traveled alongside NPR hosts to cover Russia's invasion of Ukraine and the back to power from Pakistan, and helped tell the stories of Yemeni refugees stuck in Djibouti and in towns across the U.S. devastated by opioid addiction.
Her work on a multi-part series about children and the opioid addiction won a Gracie Award in 2019. She was awarded a White House °µºÚ±¬ÁÏ Photographer Association Award for , an audio/visual project she led ahead of the 2018 midterm elections.
In 2014, she led an investigation into the Pentagon's 1033 program, which supplies local law enforcement with surplus military-grade weapons and vehicles. The findings were cited by lawmakers during hearings on Capitol Hill and contributed to the Obama administration's decision to scale back the program.
