Pulitzer Photographer Exhibits in Gettysburg

Pulitzer Photographer Exhibits in Gettysburg: "With a Pulitzer Prize, a Robert Capa Gold Medal, more Pictures of the Year International awards than one can count and three National Press Photographers Association Photojournalist of the Year awards, there is no doubt that both Cole’s peers and audience find her photographs to be especially powerful for conveying a particular moment in time and history.

In 2003, Cole went to Liberia, as rebels surrounded that country’s capital, Monrovia. It was there that she would earn the 2004 Pulitzer Prize, ". . . for her cohesive, behind-the-scenes look at the effects of civil war in Liberia, with special attention to innocent citizens caught in the conflict.""
