NEW YORK (AP) - An Iranian photographer who was anonymously awarded a Pulitzer Prize in 1980 for capturing a chilling image of men before a firing squad was honored Monday at a ceremony for this year's winners.
The identity of Jahangir Razmi had been kept secret out of concern for his safety but was revealed in December by The Wall Street Journal with the photographer's permission.
"It's a very nice feeling. I've waited for 27 years, and I've always been longing for this day," Razmi said through an interpreter just before the ceremony at Columbia University.
