Liu Heung Shing

Liu Heung Shing (, born 1951 in Hong Kong) is a Chinese American Pulitzer Prize winner former Associated Press photojournalist and photographer.

Having had multiple assignments across Asia and the US across the shifting geopolitical landscape that marked the last decades of the 20th century, Liu Heung Shing arguably most noted for having photographed two of its watershed historic events in the 20th century: The rise of China through the upheaval of its economic reforms; and the collapse of the Soviet Union under the stewardship of Mikhail Gorbachev. For these achievement, Liu was recognised by the Associated Press as Best Photographer in 1989 and 1991. His coverage of these events has also been awarded Photo of the Year by the University of Missouri, for his coverage of the Tiananmen Turmoil in 1989. In 1992, he shared with his colleagues in Moscow, a Pulitzer Prize for Spot News Photography for documenting the collapse of the Soviet Union. For this, he further received the Overseas Press Club award in 1992.

Today, Liu Heung Shing and his wife Karen Smith make their home in Shanghai, where Liu Heung Shing is the founding director of the Shanghai Centre of Photography. Provided by Wikipedia
