The Pulitzer Prize – Feature Photography Preston Gannaway

Posted by Tim Gruber Tags: contests, documentary, photojournalism, pulitzer | Filed under photojournalism

A big congrats to Preston Gannaway for winning one of the greatest honors for any storyteller; a Pulitzer. Her story “Remember Me“(link to the multimedia piece) is an incredible and intimate journey with Carolynne St. Pierre and her family. Thanks to the St. Pierre’s for sharing their story and to Preston for documenting the precious journey. As somebody going through something very similar right now this piece hits me hard. I don’t know where they found the strength, but I’m glad they did. Thank you Carolynee, Preston and company.
