Pulitzer Prize Photographs

A Traveling Exhibit of Award-Winning Photography

The Newseum is taking one of its most popular exhibits to cities around the world.

"Capture the Moment: The Pulitzer Prize Photographs," a dramatic display of award-winning photography, has appeared in 30 cities. More than 2.5 million visitors have seen the exhibit in the United States since its New York opening in 2000. The show's recent eight-month tour of South Korea drew more than 300,000 visitors.

From the poignant shot of an ailing Babe Ruth watching his number being retired at Yankee Stadium, to the U.S. Marines raising an American flag atop Mount Suribachi on Iwo Jima, the photographs illustrate the enduring power of the still image.

The exhibit is updated annually and includes every winning photographer and photo staff since the Pulitzer board began awarding the photography prize in 1942.

An updated catalog of all of the Pulitzer Prize-winning photos is available at the exhibit’s venues and at the Newseum. 

The traveling Pulitzer show was created and is booked by Cyma Rubin (cyma.rubin@verizon.net) and Business of Entertainment.
