Photojournalist Don McCullin Receives Knighthood

From the Canon Professional Network:

World-renowned photographer Don McCullin was knighted in the Queen’s New Year Honours list this month. CPN spoke exclusively to Sir Don and discovered more about what this award means to him...

Sir Don, one of the most influential photojournalists in the history of photography, has a career that spans over half a century. His knighthood, which recognises his services to photography, is particularly special for him. “It’s one of those things that you can’t really come to terms with right away,” he remarks. “There I am at 80 years of age and then suddenly this thing is bestowed upon me. I don’t think for a second that it’s going to make the slightest difference to the last few years of my life but it’s a warm and comfortable feeling knowing that my life’s work has been appreciated. I’m very happy about it, of course.”
