wrote the story of war is a french photojournalist paid their own way to vietnam flying from paris to saigon. she has zero experience as ace photographer in her mid- twenties. in 1866 she was essentially a high school dropout but yet through her own work and outsiders view into humane look at photography she took amazing photographs and became the first woman to win the george book award for photography in the gold-medal awards. that's the thing for a conflict reporter. the next woman down, the most privilege by a long shot of me three women. from a blueblood background. intellectuals family of wealth and prestige. her father was cia director with democratic party activist and arrived on her own with no job, a couple of ideas of freelancing. she ended up taking a completely different view of vietnam so what about the vietnamese point of view? the landscape in the culture and what the and the americans vietnam she was 31 years old at the time. from the bottom is the australian in intellectual born in new zealand race in australia. again no credentials to speak o of no job. but yet as an outsi
