Russian photographer Sergey Ponomarev spent eight years at the Associated Press. Today a freelance photojournalist, at 36, he is a war correspondent for the New York Times. Since then, he regularly writes for the American daily newspaper around the world, from Gaza to Maïdan, passing by Damas. According to him, to photograph is to construct meaning.
In 2016 he shared a Pulitzer Prize for Breaking News Photography with Mauricio Lima, Tyler Hicks, and Daniel Etter "For photographs that captured the resolve of refugees, the perils of their journeys and the struggle of host countries to take them in." Specifically, their coverage of the European migrant crisis, produced for The New York Times, was cited. He became the second individual Pulitzer Prize winner from Russia since 1992, after Alexander Zemlianichenko (1997). In 2017, he was awarded the Robert Capa Gold Medal (shared with Bryan Denton) for his coverage of the war in Iraq.
