إنزو بالدوني

From the news reports:

The independent journalist, who also worked as a volunteer for the Red Cross, also reported from Colombia, Chiapas in Mexico, Myanmar and East Timor. ...

Diario's editor in chief, Enrico Deaglio, told the Sky TG24 news network that Baldoni was "a person who wanted to know, understand, report. Certainly a person who was very good at heart".

Friends and associates also described him as an optimistic man with a taste for adventure and a keen sense of irony. ...

Baldoni started his career working in advertising before moving on to become a copy-writer and, later, a journalist.

He also liked comics and translated Garry Trudeau's Doonesbury into Italian.

Baldoni is reported to have carried out some high-profile interviews during his career, including a meeting with Zapatista leader Subcomandante Marcos in Chiapas and Xanana Gusmao during a visit to East Timor.
