Graham Robin Usher (12 December 1958 – 8 August 2013) was a British journalist who became the first Palestine correspondent of The Economist. In a career that took him from London to Gaza, Islamabad and New York, he won particular praise for his reporting on the Israel-Palestine conflict during the Oslo process and Second Intifada.[1] The Palestinian intellectual Edward Said wrote in 1996 that Usher did "the best foreign on-the-spot reporting from Palestine".[2]
