Photo by Steve McCurry
Photojournalist Steve McCurry
Story aired: Friday, May 16, 2003



Think of the iconic photographs. Nick Ut's picture of the naked napalmed girl in Vietnam, Dorothea Lange's dust bowl migrant mother, or Steve McCurry's afghan girl come to mind.

Steve McCurrays photo of the green eyed girl first stared at us from the cover of National Geographic in 1985 and became a symbol of refugees around the world.

But Steve has taken hundreds of photographs, wining photojournalism's highest awards, and recently he came to Boston University to speak about his craft at the invitation of the American society of Media photographers.
Here and Now spoke to him during his visit to Boston.
