Foreign Correspondent and Freelance Journalist Back in the United
States, Beatty did not return to her job at the San
Francisco Bulletin, but rather elected to stay
in New York City, finishing The Red Heart of Russia
and working as editor of McCall’s magazine. In
1919 she defended the Bolshevist Revolution before the
Senate Overman’s Committee. She continued to travel
around the world, reporting back about everything from
politics and women’s rights to travel destinations. Her
articles appeared in Good Housekeeping, The
New Republic, Women’s Home Journal, Century,
and Asia. She traveled to England, Turkey, and
France, among other places. She returned to Russia in
1921 and wrote a series of articles after interviewing
the revolutionary leaders Georgy Chicherin, Vladimir
Lenin, Leon Trotsky, Mikhail Kalinin, and the first lady
of the Soviet Union, Ekaterina Ivanova.
