| Associate professor Steve Raymer was a keynote speaker and contest judge at the Kentucky News Photographers Association annual seminar. |
Raymer spoke about "A Life in Pictures," leading students and professionals through his 35-year journey as a National Geographic photographer from the final days of the Vietnam War to the collapse of the former Soviet Union and the rise of China and India as global powers.
Raymer also was a judge of the KNPA annual photo and multimedia contest along with Pulitzer Prize-winner Rene Byer of the Sacramento Bee, David Frank of The New York Times and Seth Gitner of the Roanoke Times.
"My two sons-in-law get very generous Christmas bonuses," said Raymer, "but I remind myself every day what a privilege it is to go inside the lives of the people whom we photograph and to be society’s professional eyewitnesses."
