Hard to watch this from inside Putin's press conference. Evan should be in the hall with us. not in this cage. I asked what it would take to bring Evan & Paul Whelan home.
He said: Russia is ā€œin contact w the American sideā€ but any agreement must be ā€œmutually acceptable.ā€

Written by Light: The Magnum & WPP Print Sale

For years I tried to photograph inside the otherwise closed country of North Korea. A glimpse behind the regimeā€™s totalitarian controls and beyond the dehumanizing depictions offered by the outside world.

In a recent letter, Evan gave me writing advice and relayed an anecdote about Junot Diaz. After six months in jail, Evan remains principled, courageous and funny, everything the government holding him hostage is not.
