This month we are thrilled to partner with the Briscoe Center for American History for an evening with Ed Kashi. Ed is a renowned photojournalist, filmmaker, speaker and educator who has been making images and telling stories for 40 years. As a member of VII Photo, Kashi has been recognized for his complex imagery and its compelling rendering of the human condition. Kashi’s innovative approach to photography and filmmaking has produced a number of influential short films and earned recognition by the POYi Awards as 2015’s Multimedia Photographer of the Year. Kashi’s embrace of technology has led to creative social media projects for clients including National Geographic, The New Yorker, and MSNBC. From implementing a unique approach to photography and filmmaking in his 2006 Iraqi Kurdistan Flipbook, to paradigm shifting coverage of Hurricane Sandy for TIME in 2012, Kashi continues to create compelling imagery and engage with the world in new ways.We are celebrating Ed Kashi’s donation of his photographic archive to the Briscoe Center. In conjunction with this collection, the Briscoe Center has published Kashi’s newest book, "A Period in Time: Looking Back while Moving Forward: 1977–2022." Books will be available for sale at the event and Ed will be signing them at the reception following the talk.
