Elie Wiesel Reviews "The Lost"

Esteemed humanitarian and Holocaust author Elie Wiesel, winner of the 1986 Nobel Peace Prize, reviewed "The Lost: A Search for Six of Six Million" in this past Sunday's Washington Post Book World.

Ten years ago, when I was working at USA Today, I had the great honor of photographing Mr. Wiesel (above). As many of you know, I'm a fairly chatty guy. But this particular time, I kept my mouth shut and made my portraits. I just knew that anything that came out of my mouth would have been dumb.

Anyway, the review, as one would expect, is a work of beauty in its own right.
