Timeline

2010

In 2005, Bob Geldof had the film played again, at the Live 8 concert in London, then introduced Woldu, who thanked the audience for their support, in her native tongue. She remained on stage for the first part of Madonna's performance of "Like a Prayer". It was reported 13 January 2010 that Birhan, then a nurse, had become engaged to Birhanu Meresa, whom she had met while the two attended an agricultural college in Ethiopia.

1984

Woldu was originally found in 1984 by a CBC documentary crew led by Brian Stewart and Tony Burman. Her family walked from their village in Tigray to Mek'ele in hopes of finding food or relief. The harsh journey proved too much for many: her sister Azmara died during the trip; she and her mother both became very ill.

She subsequently became the iconic symbol that rallied the world to address the 1984—1985 Ethiopian Famine. British Prime Minister Tony Blair said the image of her face "changed his life." In 2004, an adult Woldu appeared in Band Aid 20's music video for "Do They Know It's Christmas".

1981
