Author Information

EDDIE ADAMS (1933–2004) The only Associated Press photographer to hold the title of special correspondent, Adams photographed thirteen wars, six US presidents, many heads of state, and countless celebrities. He recorded many significant events in the second half of the twentieth century, creating photographs that influenced public opinion and changed policy; his series on Vietnamese boat people, “Boat of No Smiles,” influenced the United States to admit 200,000 Vietnamese refugees at the end of the war. Many of Adams’s images continue to provoke discussion and debate to this day. ANNE WILKES TUCKER Hailed as “America’s Best Curator” by Time magazine, Tucker served as the Gus and Lyndall Wortham Curator at the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, where she built the photography collection and organized more than forty exhibitions.
