I Had Known Poverty Firsthand, But There

You Know, The Camera Is Not Meant Just To Show Misery. You Can Show Things That You Like About The Universe, Things That You Hate About The Universe. It's Capable Of Doing Both.

I Have Always Felt As Though I Needed A Weapon Against Evil.

I Suffered Evils, But Without Allowing Them To Rob Me Of The Freedom To Expand.

I'd Become Sort Of Involved In Things That Were Happening To People. No Matter What Color They Be, Whether They Be Indians, Or Negroes, The Poor White Person Or Anyone Who Was I Thought More Or Less Getting A Bad Shake.

I Was There Less Than A Year Before I Was Assigned To The Paris Bureau. I Spent Two Years There And, In Fact, Before I Even Went On The Staff I Was Sent To Europe To Do Assignments Which They Wouldn't Normally Do For A Young Photographer Just Starting Out.
