“The Digital Journalist is an online magazine about photojournalism.
Dirck Halstead launched the Digital Journalist in 1997 and is its editor and publisher. The site provides an online venue for visual storytellers covering an unending range of topics. The work, in photography and words, of world-renowned photojournalists, print journalists, and promising young video filmmakers is presented. Among the staff and regular contributors are several Pulitzer Prize winners. It has an average monthly page count of 150-plus, and more than 2.5 million unique visits per issue. The site is ranked within the top 100 metric sites worldwide. The Online News Association has honored The Digital Journalist twice with its top prize.”
The current issue of Digital Journalist (February 2008) contains a great photo-profile of celebrity photographer extraordinaire Douglas Kirkland titled Douglas Kirkland: “Freeze Frame”.
I recently discovered on Digg a link to a feature story Digital Journalist first published in September 2003 in collaboration with Life Magazine * titled 100 Photographs That Changed the World. 28 of the 100 photographs are featured in the article – the complete collection is available for sale as a hardcover book from Life Books.
* Life Magazine seems to be more less offline at the moment, but has a long and prestigious photojournalistic history in its own right. (Wikipedia)
Coincidentally, I have the personal honor of knowing one of the Contributing Editors of Digital Journalist, Roger Richards, who is currently Editor and Publisher of Digital Journalist sister publication Digital Filmmaker.
Digital Filmmaker:
“…is dedicated to the art of visual storytelling, uniting the worlds of the photojournalist, the video journalist and the independent digital filmmaker”
Roger and I both worked part-time together many moons ago at an event photography and photo lab in Fort Lauderdale and keep in touch periodically via email.
Best wishes go out to Roger and all the Digital Filmmaker and Digital Journalist Teams for continued success!
