Tim Hetherington

British-American photojournalist Tim Hetherington was killed while working in Misrata, Libya, in April of 2011. He known for his uncanny ability to capture the inner world of soldiers and pair it with the exterior violence of their everyday professional lives. Between 2007 and 2008, he spent time embedded with the U.S. Army soldiers of the 173rd Airborne Brigade Combat Team at Outpost Restrepo, the namesake of the film that Hetherington co-directed with Sebastian Junger. His work endures as a unique look into the lives of American troops during a controversial time in American politics.
