Seeing America

In Seeing America, the exhibition highlights Pulitzer Prize-winning works that have documented American life and politics since they were first awarded in 1917; how award-winning journalism holds power to account; and how Pulitzer-honored journalism, books, drama and music showcase American achievements in culture, sports and science.

The lead image on the left here is of American athlete Jackie Joyner-Kersee at the 1992 Olympics photographed by William Synder of Dallas Morning News. To the right is a scene from protests after the murder of George Floyd in 2020, captured by Julio Cortez of Associated Press.
