Image Bank Assignment

          Larry Burrows was born in London in 1926. He left school at the age of 16 and took a job in Life Magazine where he printed photographs. Burrows became a photographer for the vietnam war from 1962 till he died in 1971. Some highlights were that Borrows wrote a book called Vietnam which  received the Prix Nadar Award. Also his photo appeared on the cover of Life Magazine. The reason why I have chosen Larry Burrows for this assignment is because his photos are very interesting.Throughout his pictures he captures all different aspects of the war and how the soldiers prepared. His photos tell a thousand words. He really showed fans like myself what actually went on in vietnam for example his photo range from soldiers in action, and the pain and suffering caused from the war. He showed american citizen like myself the terrors of the War of Vietnam and how hard the soldiers fought for this country.
