A recipient of various awards and contributor to publications such as Life, Time, Geo, and the New York Times, Meiselas is a freelance American photographer whose work delves immediately into the subject without sensationalism. The Foundation based its choice on the following premise: “Susan Meiselas, one of the leading photographers in the humanistic-documentary tradition, has portrayed people in their struggle for social justice and human dignity, as seen in her powerful work from the revolutions of Nicaragua and El Salvador. In her photographs there is a tension in the interrelation between form and content.” A wonderful catalog highlighting examples of her most powerful work, published on occasion of her receipt of the renowned Hasselblad Prize in 1994.
