The Stories Behind the Photos: Photojournalist Jerry Wolford

In award-winning photojournalist Jerry Wolford’s opinion, emotion acts as a magnet for our attention and for his camera. It’s the essence of storytelling, and the more intense the emotion, the better he likes it. As Wolford puts it, a photograph that shows more than one feeling, or even opposite emotions at the same time, is the best storyteller.

Wolford will share unforgettable stories about his photos – how they came to be, what drew his attention and what they say about the people of Greensboro.
