She has appeared on television more than 100 times and lectured at more than 500 universities, schools, churches, mosques, synagogues, think tanks, and other policy institutes on 5 continents with her book, Witness in Palestine. In 2009, Baltzer received the Arab-American Anti-Discrimination Committee’s Rachel Corrie Peace & Justice Award and a Certificate of Commendation from the Governor of Wisconsin for her commitment to a justice in the Holy Land. She is a contributor to four upcoming books on the subject and serves on the Middle East committee of the Women's International League for Peace & Freedom and the Board of Directors of The Research Journalism Institute, Grassroots Jerusalem, and NewPolicy.org.
