Trib2-smLast week I saw my work in print for the first time this summer. My photos ran in the Chicago Tribune and the Boston Globe. A photo of filmmaker Michael Moore ran in the Chicago Tribune on Friday, June 25, on the back of Section A. I don’t have a hard copy of the Boston Globe yet, but a photo of one of DC’s pandas ran in the Sunday, June 27, edition on page A17. My photo illustrated a story by a fellow writing intern.

Working for a news wire, I have the advantage of broad exposure. Newspapers around the country could potentially use my photos. The only disadvantage is that I have no way of knowing who uses my photos unless I happen to see the photo in print. I found the photo in the Chicago Tribune, and a coworker vacationing in New England spotted the Boston Globe story. So that is to say, keep an eye out in your local paper. You may see a photo in print before I do. Let me know if you spot any photos credited to Michael Collins / KRT.
