Congratulations to yamphoto! He won a Pulitzer Prize for breaking news photography for his coverage of the fall of Afghanistan.
L.A. Times photographer Marcus Yam was assaulted and detained by Taliban members. Then they gave him a Monster Energy drink.Yam’s award was 49th Pulitzer Prize for The Times since 1942, including six gold medals for public service.
Born and raised in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, Yam, 38, left a career in aerospace engineering to become a photographer. He joined The Times in 2014. Yam laid the groundwork for his coverage of the Taliban’s blitzkrieg takeover of Afghanistan with diligent previous work in the country. One foray into the country with a writing colleague produced profiles of young Afghans whose lifespans coincided with the duration of the long war, young women who had never known Taliban rule, and Afghan musicians facing a ban on the vocation they loved.
