Book Club - Ukraine – A War Crime
In this Book Club event, Ziyah Gafic speaks with Svetlana Bachevanova and Sarah Leen about Ukraine: A War Crime. A compilation of work by 93 photojournalists from 25 countries who united to share their firsthand experience covering the Russian invasion of Ukraine, “Ukraine – A War Crime” is the FotoEvidence 2023 award winner. The book collects visual evidence of the violence and war crimes committed on Ukrainian soil. As such, it will serve as a powerful tool for mobilization, legal prosecution, and as an historical document for future generations.

Photo Editors Series – Sarah Leen
The Photo Editors Series are conversations with well-known photo editors about how they view the media today, the role of visuals in reporting, the work they like to see, and advice for photographers on how best to connect with publishers. In this event, hosted by David Campbell and Ilvy Njiokiktjien, the series combines an overview of the contemporary media landscape with practical tips. The editors in the series speak as individuals rather than representatives of their organizations. In this sixth episode, we speak with Sarah Leen, founder of The Visual Thinking Collective and the former Directory of Photography for National Geographic Magazine and Visual Media.

Sarah Leen - National Geographic Director of Photography – Eddie Adams Workshop 2015
Sarah Leen is a senior photo editor for National Geographic magazine. Sarah made the leap into photo editing in 2005 after a 27-year career as a freelance photographer, contributing regularly for the magazine. During her 1979 college internship at the magazine she produced her first published story, “Return to Uganda.” In 1979, as a student at the University of Missouri School of Journalism, Sarah received the College Photographer of the Year award. She went on to work as a staff photographer for the Topeka (Kansas) Capital-Journal and the Philadelphia Inquirer, where she received a Robert F. Kennedy Award honorable mention for a photo documentary on Alzheimer's disease. As a photographer for the National Geographic Society, Sarah’s published assignments have ranged from the U.S.-Canada border and the Kamchatka peninsula in Siberia to the Mexican volcano Popocatepetl and urban sprawl in the United States. A book of her work, American Back Roads, was published by National Geographic in 2000. Sarah’s photographs also have been included in the Day in the Life series of books, as well as Women of the Material World, The Power to Heal, A Passage to Vietnam, National Geographic: The Photographs, and Women Photographers at National Geographic. Sarah teaches photography at the Missouri Photo Workshop, the Maine Photographic Workshops, and the Palm Beach Photographic Centre. She and her husband, Bill Marr, live along the Chesapeake Bay with their cats and assorted koi. She is a member of the Eddie Adams Workshop Board of Directors.
