Sir Don McCullin
Acclaimed Photographer
Don McCullin is one of the most important war photographers of the late 20th century, best known for his broad war reportage and critical social documentation. Between 1966 and 1984, he worked for The Sunday Times Magazine under Harry Evans and art editor David King. During this time he released some of his most celebrated images. He continued to expand his oeuvre with independent trips to India, Africa, and the Middle East, raising awareness of global humanitarian issues and war-torn areas with unflinching honesty. His recent solo presentations include his eponymous touring retrospective exhibition at Tate Liverpool and Tate Britain.
In 2020, McCullin was given the Lifetime Achievement award at the International Center of Photography in New York and, in 2017, was knighted in the New Year Honours for services to photography. He has won the World Press Photo Foundation’s World Press Photo of the Year award, and has published over 20 books on photography as well as his acclaimed autobiography, Unreasonable Behaviour. His most recent title, Life, Death and Everything in Between, was published in February 2024.
