Zoriah – War photographer

As we announced earlier, we managed to schedule some time with war photographer Zoriah.

To be able to better follow the conversation, we’d encourage you to visit his site at Zoriah.com and take a look at his portfolio and his stories.

In our conversation, Zoriah shares how he decided to become a photojournalist and later on started covering some of the major war locations and how it affected his life. We also discussed the events that brought him and his work to the eyes of the world in the middle of controversy.

As always, comments on the show are welcome.

Great work Zoriah, and thanks again for your time. It was an honor to have you on the show.

Next guest on PhotoNetCast: Zoriah

For those not familiar with the name, Zoriah is an award-winning photojournalist specialized in documenting human crisis in developing countries and has dedicated most of his recent time to document the war in Iraq.

For some time now we have been discussing the possibility of bringing Zoriah on the show (basically since Brian noted a New Your Times piece on him, back in our episode 9). We didn’t want to mention anything in our last episode simply because nothing was set yet, but now, although everything could change at the last minute due to Zoriah’s location and work, it seems that things are looking bright and we managed to "grab" a slot of his time.

For those not familiar with the name, Zoriah is an award-winning photojournalist specialized in documenting human crisis in developing countries and has dedicated most of his recent time to document the war in Iraq.

I won’t go much into his background or current projects (I’m sure we’ll go into it on the show) but if you’re interested in knowing a bit more about this fantastic photographer and his work, go to his web site at Zoriah.com or read Brian’s post about Zoriah. The article that Brian mentioned in PhotoNetCast #9 is also worth a read.

We are not going to stream live the recording of the show, so there is no possibility for  you to interact with our guest while we record. But, if you have any questions about him or his work that you’d like him to answer, we would appreciate if you could drop them in the comments section, use our voice mail widget or just email them to us using our contact form. It would be great to have as many questions from our listeners as possible to further improve what I’m sure will be a great conversation. The show is scheduled to be recorded during the next weekend, so that gives you still a few days.

Looking forward to read what you have to say…
