Howard Zinn 1922-2010

Howard Zinn died yesterday. I had the chance to photograph Zinn in 2006 at a NYC birthday party for Rev. Daniel Berrigan. Zinn's famous diplomatic visit to Hanoi with Rev. Berrigan, during the Vietnam Tet Offensive in January 1968, resulted in the return of three POW American airmen (source: wikipedia).

For more photos from the "I Oppose the Death Penalty" series, visit my photo documentary website, including photos of Daniel Berrigan and Kurt Vonnegut, also attending the 2006 birthday party.
