Photojournalist Lynsey Addario joins Margaret Hoover from Kyiv to discuss her coverage of the war in Ukraine, including a photo of victims of Russian artillery fire featured on the front page of The New York Times that has become a defining image of the conflict.
Addario, who has been documenting combat and crisis zones around the world for over 20 years, recounts the moments of horror and humanity she has witnessed since Vladimir Putin’s invasion began last month, as well as her observations of the shifting reality on the ground in Ukraine.
She also delves into the risks that war photographers take to capture vital stories, the trauma she has experienced on the job including being kidnapped twice, and the challenges and advantages of being a woman in a male-dominated field.
As Addario prepares to rotate out of Ukraine and return to her family in London, she reflects on the state of the war, Russia’s increasingly inhumane tactics, and the “unrelenting” resolve of the Ukrainian people to fight back against Putin.
