During his six-year career with Newsweek, Campo-Flores has covered some of the nation's top stories for the magazine. During the 2004 presidential election, he covered the pivotal state of Florida. An early reporter on the scene after the attacks on the World Trade Center on Sept. 11, 2001, he has subsequently written about the war in Iraq as an embedded journalist with U.S. troops.
