He has been nominated three times for the Pulitzer Prize, twice for photography and once for reporting. He is currently attached to the Baghdad Bureau of the New York Times. Photojournalists on War (2013, University of Texas Press) is a ground breaking new visual and oral history of America’s nine-year conflict in the Middle East. Featuring previously unpublished photographs and eyewitness accounts by the world’s top photojournalists. “The aim of the book … is to tell the uncensored story to the general public, an audience that hasn't been privy to much of what went on there. The photographs in the book are at once stunning and arrestingly graphic."
