Lynn Johnson. Fred Rogers Pondering.
When Mr. Rogers was on the set of The Neighborhood in Pittsburgh, he would often pause for a moment between takes, to contemplate the impact of how his message might be received by children. He took their young lives very seriously.
Lynn Johnson was recently honored with a Lucie Award for Achievement in Documentary Photography. She is known for shooting elusive subjects—language, disease, rape, water—and for asking tough questions. Dedicated to exploring the far reaches of the human condition, she spends maybe two months a year at home in Pittsburgh, packing that camera bag over and over.
