Noah Addis, whose photographs are featured in the exhibition Pathways to Stable Housing, will reflect on his work as a photojournalist, particularly as a staff photographer at The Star-Ledger, where he completed work on the growth of Christianity in Africa, the 9/11 terrorist attacks, and Iraq immediately after the fall of Baghdad in 2003. In 2005, Addis was part of a team awarded the Pulitzer Prize for coverage of the resignation of New Jersey's governor. Addis will also discuss his photography in Cuba, Brazil, and Peru, some of which deals with "informal housing"-new communities organized by people at the margins of society-and his two emerging projects on the Colorado River and "America's Playground."
