THE HERO FIELDS

Dith Pran

September 27,1942 - March 30,2008

This obituary was written at the request of
a journalist friend. I am thankful to the person in question for pointing out
the story.

Dith Pran was a photojournalist who

survived the cruel regime of Pol Pot. The movie The Killing Fields was about his experience. He was a brave soul
among horrible circumstances. Dith Pran died of pancreatic cancer at the age of
sixty-five.
