A pair of great ones. Nick Ut and Kim Phuc at Eddie Adams Workshop in 2012 during a ceremony honoring photographers who were killed in action in Vietnam. The World Press Photo organization has "suspended" Nick’s credit for his famous photo "Napalm Girl" of Kim running down the road. A vast majority of us have called BS on their shameful edict.

Jesse Jackson died at 84. I took this in `83 as he ran for president. At the 1984 Democratic National Convention he said, “My constituency is the desperate, the damned, the disinherited, the disrespected and the despised.” Jackson was one of the powerful speakers I ever photographed. Took this at the First AME Church in Los Angeles. #jessejackson @cntrforcreativephoto @time @improvambassador @nickkennerly @j_kennerly @kerrykennedyrfk @petesouza @barackobama @michelleobama @joebiden @hillaryclinton @mikebarnicle #rainbowcoalition

A #valentinesday greeting to the McCains. 26 years ago in New Hampshire @senjohnmccain with wife cindymccain campaigns in the Republican primary in New Hampshire. McCain resoundingly beat Gov. George W. Bush by 18 points in NH, but went on to lose to Bush. Covering McCain was one of my most fun and satisfying assignments ever. I took this for Newsweek. He was the #goat @cntrforcreativephoto @meghanmccain @jsmccainiv @jimmcaz @petesouza @davidburnettfoto @bobmcneelyphoto @improvambassador @nickkennerly @j_kennerly @jaketapper @marksalter55 @clarke.victoria @mccaininstitute @axiosmike @newsweek @zirinskysusan @jonkarl @mikebarnicle @willowbay @utnicky @yunghi.kim @jameskencolton @kaylalindquist @canonusa #canonusapro

Had a delightful get-together with the talented @donickcary We discussed a new cartoon series called Donick & Dave that centers on us as a bumbling journo/photog team who always misses the scoop and the shot. Based on Fox News antics. @improvambassador @nickkennerly @j_kennerly @_katiemeili @mattogroening @petesouza @mikebarnicle
From the 52 years ago vault. George Harrison in the White House Solarium. He was in town to play a concert and dropped by to say hi to President Ford. A kinder, gentler era. @cntrforcreativephoto @improvambassador @nickkennerly @j_kennerly @_katiemeili @fordlibrarymuseum @mikebarnicle @petesouza @joannapinneo @yousuf_karsh_official @anseladams #georgeharrison
Might give the Pulitzer I won for my photos from the Vietnam War to Trump.
I feel bad that he was afraid to go there, so maybe this will make him think he did.
