New York Times Senior Editor for Visuals Margaret O'Connor began her professional career
as an illustrator and art director in the field of advertising. In 1974 she moved to
San Francisco where she began doing freelance work for the San Francisco examiner,
and eventually joined their staff as an artist and designer. At the Examiner, she
"learned to appreciate what photojournalism could be." In 1984 she took advantage
of an Examiner leave of absence policy to go to New York to give living there a try.
After freelancing for a while, she was offered a job as a designer at the Wall
Street Journal. Three months later she took a job with the art department of the
Times. In 1998, she began working as a picture editor with their photography
department. She headed the photography teams that won the Pulitzer Prizes for
breaking news and feature story in 2002, as well as the 2002 Pictures of the Year
Award for best use of pictures. |
