Carol Guzy: "Ukrainian Gothic," Ukraine, 2022

Soldiers and loved ones attend a funeral for fallen comrade Denys Anatskyi in Kharkiv, Ukraine, on June 24, 2022. Anatskyi died near Chuhuiv from mortar fire while fighting during the Russian invasion. "Sometimes the dignity with which people deal with adversity is most revealing," says Guzy. "To tell their stories is an honor, we are challenged in our work not only to examine issues and expose problems but also to find poetry in everyday lives." This photograph won the White House News Photographers Association's "Eyes of History" contest for 2023.

Carol Guzy (American, b. 1956)

An internationally acclaimed news photographer, Carol Guzy is one of only five people, and the first journalist, to win four Pulitzers. She won the Pulitzer Prize in 1986, 1995, 2000 and 2011 for her reportage in Colombia, Kosovo, and Haiti. Guzy has been named Photographer of the Year by the National Press Photographers Association three times, and Photographer of the Year by the White House News Photographers Association eight times. Eleven days after Russia invaded Ukraine, Guzy traveled to Kyiv. In Ukraine, she made powerful photographs that portray the loss, suffering, and hope experienced by Ukrainians during the conflict. The images are featured in the recent book "Relentless Courage: Ukraine and the World at War" alongside the works of other world-class photographers. Guzy worked for the Miami Herald from 1980 to 1988 and The Washington Post from 1988 to 2014.
