Info

In the spring of 2005, when the Iraqi insurgency and sectarian violence reached its first peak, Westerners were kidnapped and beheaded and most foreign journalists had left the country, I started to work in Iraq on assignment for The New York Times. I remained in Iraq throughout 2006 and early 2007 and worked largely independently from the military, collaborating with Iraqi guards, drivers, and translators, but was also embedded with American, British and Iraqi forces. My pictures from Iraq appear in Iraq: The Space Between, War Porn and hello camel.
