Recommended Posts

<p>An apparently self-taught photojournalist has won a $500,000 fellowship from the prestigious MacArthur Foundation.</p>

<p>She is based in Istanbul, but has photographed very widely in conflict areas.</p>

<p>I was not previously familiar with her photos -- at least not by name. But I took a look at her website and saw a number of impressive shots:</p>

<p>Incidentally, she was also the photographer for a "New York Times" Lens feature entitled "On Assignment: Taking Time Out to Heal"</p>
