On the NPR Shots blog, reporter Ben de la Cruz highlights the work of photographer David Binder. Binder has been photographing the AIDS epidemic for over 25 years.
His documentary about one woman’s struggle with AIDS and the effects on her family, Calling My Children, was screened Wednesday at the U.S. Capitol.
