As an award-winning filmmaker and journalist, Brent tackled the toughest stories around the world often alongside his brother Craig Renaud. In recent weeks, Brent was in the region working on a TIME Studios project focused on the global refugee crisis. Our hearts are with all of Brent’s loved ones. It is essential that journalists are able to safely cover this ongoing invasion and humanitarian crisis in Ukraine. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/6157144/brent-renaud/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/6157144/brent-renaud/"},"headline":"A Statement from TIME on the Death of Journalist Brent Renaud","datePublished":"2022-03-13T17:58:29.000Z","dateModified":"2026-02-24T14:00:03.705Z","description":"","url":"https://time.com/6157144/brent-renaud/","keywords":[],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"TIME Staff","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/time-staff/"}],"articleSection":"Press Room","image":[],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/press-room/","name":"Press Room"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/6157144/brent-renaud/","name":"A Statement from TIME on the Death of Journalist Brent Renaud"}}]}] ```
