SUMMARY:Jon Chase presents virtual slideshow of 1970s work on coal miners in Appalachia
DESCRIPTION:The Boston Press Photographers Association is excited to present a talk over Zoom by Harvard University staff photographer\, Jon Chase on March 15\, 2022 at 7PM. In order to prevent zoombombing\, you must sign up in advance for the free event. We will send you the zoom link shortly before the event. \n \nSign up here\n \nDuring the event Jon will present and discuss a series of photographs he shot in the late 1970’s of coal miners in Appalachia. \n“I am a strong believer in combining words with photos\, both to provide meaningful context and to add anecdotal information that personifies the images. I have done that with my photographs of coal miners\, which are mainly portraits\, but which also document a specific time in history\, often violent\, of coal mining in those areas of Kentucky\, Virginia and West Virginia known as Coal Country” \nPrior to his 27 years at Harvard\, Chase worked for several local newspapers and for the Associated Press.

SUMMARY:How COVID Changed Us: A Pandemic in Photographs (Virtual)
DESCRIPTION:MUST PREREGISTER FOR THIS EVENT \nOne year ago the pandemic forced us apart. It drove us out of the classroom and office; it shut down theaters and bars. Streets were empty and emergency rooms were overwhelmed by people falling ill. It also revealed existing inequities. Those already struggling battled isolation\, a lack of resources\, profound levels of stress and deep personal loss. \nIn the early months of the pandemic\, as most of us had no choice but to remain at home\, photojournalists were often the first and only eyes on the ground\, witnessing the impact of the coronavirus on nearly every aspect of our lives. Since then\, photojournalists have documented our struggle to find a way forward. \nCallie Crossley\, host of Under the Radar\, Basic Black and GBH News commentator\, brings four local photojournalists to a roundtable discussion to examine the pandemic through their photos\, stories and reflections. \nJoining Callie will be four members of the Boston Press Photographers Association: independent photojournalist Angela Rowlings\, Reuters Senior Photographer Brian Snyder\, Boston Globe Photographer Jessica Rinaldi and GBH’s Director of Photography\, Meredith Nierman. \n***\nThis event is part of an entire day of reflection and storytelling conducted by GBH News. On March 10\, 2021 we mark one year from the day when Massachusetts Governor Charlie Baker declared a state of emergency. See the entire day of special programming on GBHNews.org and use the hashtag #AYearApart to follow our stories on social media. \nPhotocredit: Meredith Nierman \nThis virtual event will begin at 7:30pm Eastern Standard Time. \nForum Network events are free and available to the public\, but you must register for webinar access. \nGBH encourages you to use Zoom Webinar to watch for this event. Zoom is free to the public but you will need to download it to your computer first. You can download Zoom here. If you already have Zoom\, you will not need to download the platform again.

SUMMARY:FOB Dahlke exhibition by Allison Dinner

The exhibit will run from December 1\, 2019 through January 10\, 2020. FOB Dahlke is a story about an austere US Aviation Base called Forward Operating Base Dahlke that was opened in Afghanistan in 2018 by the US Army.

All air missions\, including medevac\, combat\, and resupply\, are conducted daily from this base. Allison’s project features an in depth look at the 101st Airborne soldiers that were some of the first to be stationed at this base\, and helped build it from the ground up.

SUMMARY:2018 PoY Craig F. Walker speaks at Documentary Matters
DESCRIPTION:2018 Boston Press Photographers Association Photographer of the Year Craig F. Walker will talk about his work and present his award-winning series “Raising Connor” as part of Social Documentary Network’s ongoing Documentary Matters series at Digital Silver Imaging in Belmont. The event is free\, but advanced registration is required. You can do so by following this link. \n \nAbout Craig F. Walker\n \nCraig F. Walker joined the staff of The Boston Globe in June of 2015. During his 30-year career he has covered a broad range of stories including the aftermath of the collapse of the World Trade Center in New York\, the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq\, the United States military\, post-traumatic stress disorder\, the Occupy movement and the refugee migration crisis in Europe. Raised in York\, Pennsylvania\, Craig graduated from the Rhode Island School of Photography and began his career working for the Marlborough Enterprise and the Berkshire Eagle. In 1998 he started working at The Denver Post in Colorado where he won the Pulitzer Prize for Feature Photography for “Ian Fisher: American Soldier.” \nIn 2012\, Craig was awarded a second Pulitzer Prize for Feature Photography for “Welcome Home\, The Story of Scott Ostrom”. Craig was also named Newspaper Photographer of the Year in the Pictures of the Year International competition. \nIn 2019\, Craig was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize for Feature Photography for “Raising Connor\,” the story of a young boy living with a complex developmental disability. Craig was also named Photographer of the Year in the Boston Press Photographers Association Pictures of the Year competition.  \nFeatured project\, “Raising Connor”\nConor is moody and unpredictable. He is easy to love\, affectionate\, and friendly. Vulnerable\, sweet\, devoted to family. Impulsive\, strong\, and overflowing with emotion. Dreaming of home\, always. Never quite at home\, anywhere. This is Connor Biscan\, a puzzle his family and caregivers have worked long and hard to solve\, a boy who lives at the intersection of autism and mental illness. It isn’t so much a rare place — as many as half of autistic children suffer from mental health problems — but it can be a deeply baffling one. The overlap between these afflictions is hard to untangle; diagnosis and treatment can be very difficult. And a health care system meant to help can instead be frustrating\, even harsh. \n \nAbout Documentary Matters\n \nDocumentary Matters is an initiative of the Social Documentary Network and Digital Silver Imaging to provide a place for photographers to meet with others involved with or interested in documentary photography and discuss ongoing or completed project. This is a free and open meeting for anyone interested in presenting\, viewing\, or discussing documentary photography. \nYou don’t need to be a professional\, expert\, or established–you just need to be committed to the documentary form and committed to learning from feedback from others. And you don’t need to be a photographer or presenting your work to attend. Everyone is invited to join us\, look\, listen\, and comment. Still photography\, multimedia\, and video encouraged. Documentary required.

SUMMARY:Members Night at the MFA Graciela Iturbide exhibit
DESCRIPTION:BPPA members night at the Museum of Fine Arts exhibit of photographs by Mexican photographer Graciela Iturbide\, Thursday March 14\, 6:30pm.  The MFA has graciously arranged for tickets for BPPA members to come see the exhibit together\, and for curator Kristen Gresh to speak about Iturbide\, the photographs and the exhibit. \nAttendees should meet at 6:15pm at the Huntington Avenue entrance to the MFA. BPPA Vice President Brian Snyder will be there with tickets and parking validation. Make sure you park in an MFA lot or garage to receive validation. \n“The photographs of Graciela Iturbide not only bear witness to Mexican society but express an intense personal and poetic lyricism about her native country. One of the most influential photographers active in Latin America today\, Iturbide captures everyday life and its cultures\, rituals\, and religions\, while also raising questions about paradoxes and social injustice in Mexican society. Her photographs tell a visual story of Mexico since the late 1970s—a country in constant transition\, defined by the coexistence of the historical and modern as a result of the culture’s rich amalgamation of cultures. For Iturbide\, photography is a way of life and a way of seeing and understanding Mexico and its beauty\, challenges\, and contradictions.”  -MFA\, Boston \nPlease RSVP so we have some idea of how many tickets to reserve.  The event is free for BPPA members and they may bring one guest to the event.
