Winner of the
prestigious World Press Photo of the Year Award in 2006,
Spencer Platt is a highly respected photo journalist from
the United States.
His work on 9/11, and during the 2006 war
in Lebanon have shown his exceptional skills and pushed
Platt to the forefront of the many talented photo journalists
working today. His photo of the second plane hitting the
World Trade Center has become an icon of that day, and has
been printed in newspapers world wide.
Platt is an exciting addition to the SP08
speaker lineup and we look forward to hearing the stories
behind the photos. |
