Dalit Haim
As the daughter of Iraqi refugees studying international relations was for Dalit Haim the extension of the heated debates of many family dinners, however, it was following an internship at CNN that this transformed into a career. As a producer at Sky News for the last 15 years Dalit has covered everything from royal births to the recent US Capitol riot. She was the first newsperson on the scene at the Grenfell Tower disaster in 2017, filming interviews on her camera until the Sky News crew arrived.
