I am a Bangkok-based photographer represented by Panos Pictures in London. My work has appeared in leading publications world-wide. In 1999, I won an award from the John Hopkins University for Excellence in International Journalism for exposing Pol Pot’s chief executioner, Comrade Duch, a story told in my book 'The Lost Executioner'. I also co-directed the Emmy nominated 'Burma Soldier', an HBO film which was awarded the Grand Jury Prize at the United Nations Association Film Festival. My last book, 'Brave New Burma', was an intimate portrait in words and pictures of Burma under military rule that spanned two decades. I am currently working on a personal project about conflict, land and identity centered on a forgotten Irish battlefield where I began taking photographs as a boy.
