Press Release
Press Room
Opening February 17, 2009, the special exhibit features works by Pulitzer Prize-winning photojournalist Bob Jackson.
In 1964, Jackson made history when he was awarded a Pulitzer Prize for his iconic image of Ruby shooting Oswald in the basement of Dallas police headquarters; it was the first such prize awarded to a Dallas newspaper—The Dallas Times Herald. What began as a routine routine assignment to cover President Kennedy's trip to Dallas turned out to be one of the most tragic weekends in the country's history, with Jackson at the center of much of the activity.
Using Jackson's black and white images, A Photographer's Story provides a chronological experience from Kennedy's arrival, the motorcade route, the assassination at Dealey Plaza, onlookers' grief outside Parkland Hospital, Oswald's murder and Ruby's "trial of the century." The exhibit places these events in the larger context of an era of change with telling images of protests, school desegregation and Beatlemania.
Other features of the exhibit include artifacts related to 1960s journalism and interactive stations devoted to "thinking like a 1960s newspaper photographer." Film and video footage of Jackson the assassination weekend is also shown. The exhibit runs from February 17, 2009 to July 31, 2010, and is free with regular paid admission to the Museum.
