Steve McCurry: The Stories Behind the Photographs That Changed How We See the World

Steve McCurry: The Stories Behind the Photographs That Changed How We See the World

He is one of the world's most celebrated photographers, whose iconic image The Afghan Girl became a symbol of resilience and beauty seen across the globe. Yet Steve McCurry's story reaches far beyond a single frame.

In this captivating and deeply human conversation, Steve joins Sarah Grynberg to share the untold stories behind his extraordinary career, from surviving near-death encounters in war zones, capturing the haunting aftermath of 9/11 in his own city, to finding serenity in Buddhist monasteries and the quiet wisdom of travel. With humility, courage and reflection, he reveals how a camera can bridge cultures, preserve humanity, and shine a light where words often fail.

You'll learn:

*The harrowing tale of photographing 911

*How witnessing war and tragedy deepened Steve's belief in our shared humanity.

*How he risked his life to get some of the world's most memorable photographs

This episode is a powerful reminder that greatness is not just about what we see through the lens, but how we choose to see and connect with each other.
