Pulitzer Prize winner Ted Jackson, a photojournalist for The New Orleans Times-Picayune, will give a talk and slide presentation of his photos on Tuesday, Nov. 8, at 9:30 a.m., in the Visual Arts & Technologies Center, Room 120 (Dewey and Lewis Streets).  This will be the 28th Annual Edith Fox King Journalism Lecture.  The event is free and open to the public, and seating is limited.

Jackson won the 1997 Pulitzer Prize for Public Service for his series on the collapse of the world's fisheries titled "Oceans of Trouble." 

While they were locked out of their newspaper's flooded headquarters, Jackson and the other Times-Picayune staff posted stories and photographs on the Internet about Hurricane Katrina and its aftermath.

Some of his other photographic subjects have included the Cajuns, Pope John Paul II's U.S. tour, a photo essay on a successful crack cocaine rehabilitation facility, stories on the city's homeless population, and the essay "Desire, Death of a Dream" about the Desire housing development.  Jackson has also covered the demolition of the Berlin Wall, the Persian Gulf War, and life in Cuba and Haiti.  

This event is sponsored by the student chapter of the Society of Professional Journalists and the Department of Journalism-Photography and is a part of International Education Week at San Antonio College.
