Watch Photojournalism: The Life Magazine Way

Photojournalism: The Life Magazine Way looks at back at the magazine’s breathtaking images but the main focus is listening to the people responsible for the photos. Interviews with several Life Magazine photographers and editors make the strong case for Life’s unique role in people’s perception of the world around them. The power of the pictures was, as one photographer says, making controversy acceptable. The photographers all expose themselves with anecdotes about the moments and people that are represented by those iconic photos, like the man whose first story was covering the liberation of his own POW camp.
