on Friday, apparently gunned down by an Afghan policeman. She and Kathy Gannon, a Canadian journalist, were shot while traveling in a government convey as they covered preparations for the Afghanistan presidential election on Saturday. Gannon was wounded and is in stable condition. Niedringhaus was a Pulitzer Prize winner for her work covering the Iraq war and was a veteran in the region. One of my favorite of her photos is this, a shot of a father with his five kids paying to enter a Kabul park. It was taken in 2013. Remarkable. See more of her work here.
