“Gotcha!”: Snapshots that Made History presented by Jim DelGiudice

July 16, at 6:30 PM 
 
Media commentator Jerry Della Femina once said, “When we close our eyes, we see pictures.” And some of the images we remember best are snapshots—moments captured on camera purely by luck. In this lecture, New Jersey photojournalist Jim DelGiudice will look at photos that changed history by accident— why a snapshot of Abe Lincoln’s tousled hair, for example, helped gain him the presidency, but one of Gary Hart on a yacht lost it for him. Along with each image, we’ll examine its historical context—how and why the event happened— and what it was that made the photographer say… “Gotcha!”
