CGS Alum Wins Pulitzer Prize for Photography
Jessica Rinaldi (CGS’99, COM’01) is one of three Boston University alumni who received a Pulitzer Prize this April. Rinaldi, a reporter with the Boston Globe, took home the feature photography prize for her photography of Strider Wolf, a boy living in poverty and recovering from abuse in Oxford, Maine. Rinaldi and Globe reporter Sarah Schweitzer followed Strider’s family story as he moved to different homes with his grandparents and as he dealt with the physical and emotional aftermath of an abusive home. Rinaldi told the Globe, “documentary photography is all about building relationships with your subjects. It allows you to be sort of a fly on the wall.”
