Legendary war photographer Tim Page dies

The Globe remembers Tim Page, whose raw images of the Vietnam War propelled a lifetime of engagement with Southeast Asia and commitment to honouring photojournalists and victims of conflict

Tim Page lived the bravado of war correspondence since the day he escaped Laos on his 250cc motorbike, delivering photos of a failed 1965 coup attempt.

United Press International then dispatched the self-taught, 21-year-old British photographer, to Saigon to document America’s impending years of carnage in Vietnam. He had stumbled into photography after leaving home in England to travel across Asia at 17, but his raw, intimate images of conflict reached the pages of Time, Life and the world’s top media for the rest of the decade, contributing to a shift in public opinion against the war.
