Most famous photographer you never heard of dies at 85
He took some of the most famous news photos of our time but, as White House photographer from Truman to Johnson, his name was usually not attached to them and he was never widely known.
But when Joe O'Donnell passed away six days ago in Nashville at the age of 85, he earned obit mention. He never worked for a newspaper, but thousands of them carried his iconic photos of (to name just two) FDR, Stalin and Churchill at Yalta, and John-John Kennedy saluting his father’s casket.
