Photographer and Humanitarian – James Nachtwey

James Nachtwey may be remembered ultimately by some simply as a war photographer but in a larger sense there has been no one finer to represent the human condition.

These videos are not just to show off Nachtwey’s work. They represent his wish to educate the world about new, deadly and very drug resistant forms of tuberculosis.
