Dith Pran was a Cambodian journalist, a first witness to a dark time in his native land. He survived the atrocities of Cambodia:

“…Schanberg helped Dith’s family get out but was forced to leave his friend behind after the capital fell; they were not reunited until Dith escaped four and a half years later. Eventually, Dith resettled in the United States and went to work as a photographer for the Times.”

Dith Pran found a second home land in the United States, a country that he dearly loved - unabashedly.
