CHICAGO ALLIANCE OF AFRICAN-AMERICAN PHOTOGRAPHERS PRESENTS A 10 YEAR RETROSPECTIVE
February 6, 2010 – January 7, 2011
The Chicago Alliance of African-American Photographers (CAAAP) will present a retrospective look at individual members’ photographic works. CAAAP was founded in 1999. Some of their members are established professionals, while others are hobbyists, but all share a common passion for the art of photography and its power to inform, educate and record history. Their membership includes three past Pulitzer Prize-winning photojournalists. They are: former Chicago Tribune photographer Ovie Carter, recipient of the 1975 Pulitzer Prize for International Reporting; Milbert Brown, Jr., member (with Carter) of the Tribune's team which won the 2001 prize for Explanatory Reporting; and Chicago Sun-Times photographer John H. White, who won the 1982 Pultizer Prize for Feature Photography.
