ZUMA
Press Signs Award-Winner AARON LEE
FINEMAN
May 26, 2004 - San Clemente, CA -
ZUMA Press is proud to add
award-winning photojournalist AARON LEE FINEMAN to its roster of
outstanding talent. Fineman joins ZUMA's assignment team after a decade of nearly
daily freelance work for the New York Times, where he covered
NYC-area hard news and features for the prestigious Gotham daily as a
freelancer.
Fineman is the recipient of numerous industry
awards but is best known for his coverage of 9-11 that contributed to the
Times' 2002 Pulitzer Prize for Public Service in
Journalism.
Fineman's work is featured in a number of books,
including Portraits: 9/11/01: The Collected "Portraits of Grief" from
The New York Times. Over the years, his images have also graced the
pages of leading media outlets such as Newsweek, TIME
Magazine, U.S. News and World Report, Mother Jones, Paper
Magazine, Forbes, American Photo and Die
Zeit.
"Aaron's young and ready for action, yet a seasoned
pro," says Scott Mc Kiernan, director and founder of ZUMA Press. "He can capture the uninhibited
spirit of an underground rave and turn around and cover breaking
apocalyptic news with the best of them. We are very proud to have him join
us and look forward to representing his work for years to
come."
Based in Brooklyn, New York, Fineman is currently
working on a long-term project documenting American youth culture and has
plans to expand the series and go global. To view more of his work, click
