That day of June 1985, there was heavy fighting in the Palestinian camps of Sabra and Chatila and I was working as a freelance. I got this picture of a crippled mother and child fleeing the fighting. I was lucky with the timing of this picture. On the next day, the picture was on the front page of The New York Times and that was really the beginning of my career.. #lebanon #civilwar #press #freelance #photography #publication #newyorktimes #poverty #crutches #refugees #camp #sabraandchatila #tragedy #tragedygirls #streetphotography
