“A reporter first and a photographer second,” the legendary AP photographer created a new standard for war photography
Legendary two-time Pulitzer Prize winning photographer Horst Faas died in Munich, Germany yesterday. Faas was a native of Germany and joined the Associated Press there in 1956. Over his career he photographed wars, revolutions, the Olympic Games, and much more, but he was best known for covering the Vietnam war, where he was severely wounded in 1967.
