Nikon is the exclusive sponsor of the
“Pulitzer Prize Photographs” exhibit.
With the click of a button, photographers record
the defining moments of our world and our time.
The ugliness of war. The pain of poverty. The
ecstasy of victory. The triumph of redemption.
This exhibit includes powerful photography and
storytelling, both in print and digital formats,
plus an original Newseum film. Immersive
interactive kiosks allow visitors to access
hundreds of interviews with Pulitzer Prize
winning–photographers, see their portfolios and
hear the stories behind the photos.
HISTORY OF THE PULITZER PRIZES
The Pulitzer Prizes are named after
19th-century newspaper publisher
Joseph Pulitzer, who established
the annual journalism awards in his
will. First presented in 1917 for work
published in 1916, the prestigious awards
represent excellence in journalism,
literature, music and drama. The prizes
are awarded annually by the Columbia
University School of Journalism, which
Pulitzer endowed. 2016 marks the 100th
awarding of the Pulitzer Prizes.
The exhibit features the most
comprehensive collection of Pulitzer
Prize–winning photographs ever
assembled. The images represent
every Pulitzer Prize photography winner
since 1942, when the award was first
presented. Since 1968, two prizes —
one for breaking news photography and
one for feature photography — have
been awarded each year.
Visitors can view 80 large-format
framed photographs with labels
describing the dramatic stories of
how the photographers captured the
images. The exhibit includes an original
Newseum-produced film featuring the
photographers’ stories. Visitors also can
explore interactive stations containing
more than 1,200 images and 15 hours
of video interviews with photographers.
