Default Joe Rosenthal, Photographer Who Shot Iwo Jima Flag-Raising, Dies at 94

This is from the AP

SAN FRANCISCO - Photographer Joe Rosenthal, who won a Pulitzer Prize
for his immortal image of six World War II servicemen raising an
American flag over battle-scarred Iwo Jima, died Sunday. He was 94.

Rosenthal died of natural causes at an assisted living facility in the
San Francisco suburb of Novato, said his daughter, Anne Rosenthal.

If my memory is right , I think he charged $10.00 to sign copies of his
famous photo.

RIP - Mr. Rosenthal.
