Drawn to War - Steve Mumford
Steve Mumford spent the first six years of the Iraq War embedded with U.S. troops as a “combat artist.” Although Mumford says he set out to draw the horror of war, and did on occasion encounter scenes of conflict, the overall impression a viewer gets from Mumford’s work is of the ordinariness of life in a war zone. NEED TO KNOW is on PBS on Fridays at 8:30pm (check local listings).
