The Middle East in Stories and Photos

“Stories and Photos from the Middle East, 1978-2003,” is the topic for a talk by Bill Foley (left) at Marian College in Indianapolis.

Foley is an award-winning photojournalist who grew up in Indianapolis and has worked in 47 countries over the last 30 years, including nine years in Cairo and Beirut. His series on the 1982 Sabra and Shatila massacres earned him a Pulitzer Prize in 1983.

Foley’s talk, at 7 p.m. 18 March in the college's Allison Mansion, is sponsored by The Richard G. Lugar Franciscan Center for Global Studies at Marian College, in conjunction with the International Interfaith Initiative, and is part of the Global Studies Speaker Series.

The event is free and open to the public; registration is required.

The event is part of the 2008 International Interfaith Symposium, “Faith, Civil Society, and International Relations,” which will take place 19-22 March at Indiana University-Purdue University in Indianapolis.
