Damon Winter is a photojournalist who has worked for The Dallas Morning News, The Los Angeles Times and
now works for The New York Times. His work on
a more sports-focused beat in Dallas lead to
his update on athletes from the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics as part of the
2008 Olympics coverage. As a photographer with The New York Times, he won the
2009 Pulitzer Prize for
feature photography, for his
first time out on the road, covering campaigns (narrated slideshow, 3min 19sec). Currently, he is sharing
his photos and
writing from Port-au-Prince, Haiti, which are included in NY Times
Lens Blog (prev. Lens Blog features:

5). If that's a bit heavy, check his
photographers journal (narrated slide show, 2min 34sec) and
his article on creating
double-exposure juxtapositions from days or weeks of shooting large-form film.
