Activist and former soldier Chelsea Manning will tell her life story in a memoir set for release next year.
Chelsea Manning, the former Army intelligence analyst who served about seven years in federal prison for leaking government documents to WikiLeaks, speaks at the C2 business conference in Montreal in May 2018.
Manning, who spent seven years in prison for leaking thousands of documents related to the Iraq war to the website WikiLeaks, is writing the book for publisher Farrar, Straus and Giroux, the publisher“It’s basically my life story up until I got the commutation, from my birth to my time in school and going to the Army and going to prison and the court-martial process,” she said.
Manning, then an Army intelligence analyst stationed in Iraq, was arrested in 2010 after sending more than 700,000 classified or sensitive documents about the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan to WikiLeaks. She was court-martialed and, in 2013, was convicted of 17 charges including espionage. A judge sentenced her to 35 years in prison, and she was dishonorably discharged from the Army.
