Photography is a powerful medium. It can expose truths and show emotions
that words never could. It can turn a mirror to our deepest fears and give us
hope for humanity. It can change the world.
Since 1942 the Pulitzer Prize has been awarded to the most excellent
photographs and photo portfolios taken every year. Usually awarded to news
photographers, the award-winning images include some of the most iconic
photographs ever taken.
In honor of National
Photo Day, Aug. 19, we put together some of our all-time
favorites. As a whole, they represent some of the most important news stories
and historical moments of the past 72 years.
