The Manuel Rivera-Ortiz Foundation for Documentary Photography & Film honors the work of photographers all around the world whose impacting images of hope, despair, of atrocities committed in Gods name; of the landless, the disenfranchised, the ill, the forgotten — bear witness to man's ability to construct and to destroy his environment and himself. The book illustrates the work of former foundation documentary photography grant recipients and shortlisted photographers.The foundation was created in 2010 by Manuel Rivera-Ortiz, a documentary photographer and journalist with a Master's Degree from Columbia University's Joseph Pulitzer Graduate School of Journalism in the City of New York. In 2012, the Pulitzer school named Rivera-Ortiz' photographic work titled “Faces of Poverty†as one of the 50 Great Stories created by alumni in the 100-year history of the school. Rivera-Ortiz lives in New York and in Switzerland where the foundation currently has its headquarters.
