Pulitzer Prize Winning Photography: A mirror to the world
Loading...
Uploaded by anoopkn on Aug 23, 2008
A collection of photographs which have won the Pulitzer Prize for breaking news photography from 1961 to 2007. The collection has 27 photos and obviously don't have all winner photos. Pulitzer prizes for press phtography are given in two categories: Breaking news photography and Feature phptography. More info can be obtained from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulitzer_Prize
In the later years, the award is mostly given to a collection of photographs covering a story rather than a single one. In such cases I chose the photo which I found most appealing for various reasons. For example, while the photo of a medical technician weeping at the funeral of his collegue who died in the 9/11 (2002) was chosen for its deep emotion, the photo of a dog feeding on a human corpse in New Orleans (2006) was chosen for its shock value.
However a collection of award-winning photos can be found in the Pulitzer prizes official site: http://www.pulitzer.org/

the 1994 pulitzer is wrong... the winner was Kevin Carter with the famous vulture and child photo
nikolapornik 2 years ago
In 1994 Carter did win a Pulitzer. But that was for feature photography. This video contains winners of breaking news category, as it is mentioned at the start. I suggest u do some research b4 u brand something as wrong.. :)
