Molly has worked extensively in the Middle East, West Africa, Latin America, and the former-Soviet states. Her publications have appeared in the Financial Times (London), the Beirut Daily Star and the San Diego Union Tribune, among others, and she has contributed research to publications by DK Books, the Hoover Institution and other policy institutes.
