Award-winning photojournalist Daniella Zalcman, whose reporting is funded by the Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting, will host a lecture in the School of Communications on Wednesday, Nov. 1. Zalcman will present “Storytelling through the Camera Lens,” at 7 p.m. in Turner Theatre.
The lecture is sponsored by the School of Communications, the Women’s, Gender, & Sexualities Studies (WGSS) Program, and the Gender & LGBTQIA Center.
Based in London and New York, Zalcman has published her work in The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, TIME, Sports Illustrated and Vanity Fair, among others. Her photographs have been exhibited throughout the U.S. and Europe and are part of the permanent collection of the Museum of Fine Arts in Houston. She graduated from Columbia University in 2009 with a degree in architecture.
As part of fellowship with the Pulitzer Center, she has contributed to several projects, including “They Are Here Because You Were There,” “Signs of Your Identity: Forced Assimilation Education for Indigenous Youth,” and “Kuchus in Uganda.”
Much of her work centers on underrepresented populations, and she also serves as a fellow with the International Women’s Media Foundation. She has chronicled the plight of women and relating human rights issues, and completed award-winning work on Indian Residential Schools in Canada and the LGBT community in former British Colonies.
Zalcman’s website provides samples of her work, her social media platforms, and a longer biography.
