Joe Rosenthal, famed photo journalist and Pulitzer Prize award winner, died over the weekend. Rosenthal is best known for his moving WWII photo of U.S. Marines raising the U.S. flag atop Mount Suribachi on Iwo Jima - the same photo for which he was awarded the Pulitzer Prize in 1945.

For further details about Rosenthal's life and works, see the San Francisco Chronicle article.
