| Introduction | I am an independent multimedia journalist, university educator and new media consultant based in Philadelphia. Until recently, I was the senior photographer, a photo-columnist and solo video journalist with the Philadelphia Daily News, where I had worked since 1991. On leave from the Daily News in 2004-2005, I was a photographer and photo editor for the Associated Press in Iraq, and personally covered over 200 combat missions and at times managing the AP’s photo reports and staff development in Baghdad. I was honored with the Bayeux Prize for War Correspondents, was included in the Associated Press photo team awarded the 2005 Pulitzer Prize for breaking news photography and numerous additional awards. In 2006-2007, I was a Knight-Wallace Fellow at the University of Michigan, and an Ochberg Fellow with the Dart Center for Journalism and Trauma in 2007. I have led photojournalism seminars at Tufts University, my alma mater, and undergraduate courses at Temple University, including a new course on journalism and trauma beginning in 2008. I am available for editorial assignments, commissioned projects, select commercial contracts, and instructional new media consulting. |
