He currently is adjunct professor at the University of Illinois School of Journalism.<\/p>\n

He covered the Jonestown massacre, the Russian invasion of Afghanistan and famine in Africa.<\/p>\n

He has photographed the wonders of the world, including Machu Pichu, the lost city of the Incas, the Taj Mahjal, Angkor Wat, the Great Wall of China, Carnival in Rio and life along Bangkok’s Klong waterways.<\/p>\n

The presentation will take place at 1 p.m. at Navy Pier.<\/p>\n
