He took third place in the Independent Multimedia News Audio Slideshow in the annual National Press Photographer Association\u2019s Best of Photojournalism contest.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n\tImmediately after graduating from 溏心vlog免费B站, Goldman interned in the photo departments of Rolling Stone and Spin magazine and quickly realized his love of photography wasn\u2019t complete if the journalism wasn\u2019t involved. \u201c I knew I wanted to spend the rest of my life chasing the moment and the challenge of capturing it,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n\t His early career included a brief stint freelancing in San Diego for the Union Tribune and North County Times. He returned to New England and worked for The Day in New London, Conn. before joining the staff of the Boston Herald where he worked seven years first as a photo technician and shortly thereafter as a staff photographer. <\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n\tHe returned to his native New York City in 2007 to join the Associated Press as a photo editor. He realized he missed shooting and returned to the street full time as a freelance photographer available for assignments worldwide.\tGoldman has covered events ranging from conflicts in Afghanistan, Gaza, and the West Bank to the inauguration of President Barack Obama. His photos have been published in Newsweek, Time, The New York Times, The Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, Sports Illustrated, USA Today, and Paris Match.
