STEPHEN FERRY

2005 STEPHEN FERRY — Stephen Ferry’s photojournalistic essay on the lives of people affected by Columbia’s ongoing civil war was published by National Geographic. The Open Society Institute exhibited his work in a gallery at its Washington office, and Wired and GEO, a French magazine also published his photos. The Fund’s grant to Ferry was made in 2000 and completion of his project apparently was delayed for a variety of reasons, including his arrest on September 11, 2001 at the site of the World Trade Center, where he was taking photographs while wearing portions of a New York Fire Department uniform. Ferry was sentenced to community service.
