FROM NEWSWEEK'S INTERNATIONAL EDITIONS
Bringing Vietnam Home
Photojournalism lost one of its giants last week with the passing of Philip Jones Griffiths. A member of the esteemed Magnum photo agency since 1966, he covered difficult assignments in more than 120 countries. He was a canny observer of daily life, but it was his work in Vietnam for which he will be most remembered, including a 1971 book credited with accelerating the end of the war. A sampling of some of his finest work.
