Pulitzer Prize Photography: Tragedy by the Sea

In the spring of 1954, Los Angeles Times photographer John Gaunt captured a moment of grief on the beach between young parents whose 19-month-old child had just been swept out to sea. In an interview with the Newseum, Gaunt discusses that fateful day and how he captured the poignant and profoundly moving photo, which was awarded the Pulitzer Prize in 1955.
