Susie Linfield: Neilly Series Lecture

Susie Linfield, Associate Professor of Journalism at New York University, will speak at the Neilly Series Lecture on "Photojournalism and Human Rights." Linfield directs the Cultural Reporting and Criticism program at NYU, and writes about culture and politics for a variety of publications. In her book, The Cruel Radiance: Photography and Political Violence, a finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award in Criticism, she argues that exploring photography and political violence is an ethically and politically necessary act that connects us to our modern history of violence.

Joan Saab, Associate Professor of Art History/Visual and Cultural Studies, will introduce Susie Linfield.
