Greg Marinovich, a Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative photojournalist, was the presenter at the BCA Photo Group’ opening meeting of the 2019 - 2020 BCA Photo Group season on Tuesday, September 10. The meeting was well attended by approximately 40 members and guests. Greg talked - and fielded questions - about his personal history in photography and how he became a professional photojournalist. His talk was illustrated by a great variety of images illustrating his long history working in conflict areas, often shooting highly disturbing subjects in dangerous conditions. In many cases the images are a historical documentation of events for which there is little other record other than local memory - we ignore and forget far too easily. For a roomful of photographers it was a powerful example of the potential impact and importance of the medium.
