For The Love of Journalism: The Story of Fallen NPR Photographer David Gilkey
An inspirational and heartbreaking story of David Gilkey, award-winning photojournalist, who sacrificed his life in the name of journalism. David was killed on June 5, 2016, while on assignment with NPR in Afghanistan. One of his closest friends, Rick McCartney, is here today to share his story.
Rick describes David as “a truly authentic man. He was who he said he was. When he went into these war zones to take pictures, he did it with the idea that he needed to show the world what was happening”.
