M+M Monday XIX – James Nachtwey

Technically this is neither a movie or music Monday. But it is to an extent.

James Nachtwey is one of my favorite photographers. His photographs do more than tell a story! They move people, inspire people and make people take action on worldwide events and issues. I have his book Inferno which is breathtaking. If your not sure on what to rent one weekend, head over to Blockbuster or Netflix and get War Photographer.

In 2007, he won the TED prize. TED, which stands for Technology, Entertainment and Design, has been won by Bill Clinton, Jane Goodall, Al Gore and others. It gives them $100,000 to do one thing, “One Wish to change the World”.

Nachtwey’s “wish” was the below.
