NPR More Funniest Driveway Moments by National Public Radio

We visited the city of Yaroslavl, this Russian city that had lost its entire professional hockey team in a plane crash. And this is what I think I really learned - that what David does with faces and just, like, transports you into someone's soul. I mean, you knew him before, but there's nothing like a very long train trip across Siberia to really bond people, right? David, you wrote the introduction to the chapter about Russia because you got to know Gilkey very well. But, I mean, in all in all seriousness, he created visual versions of driveway moments, which, you know, are the radio moments that we think we create on the radio that people will sit in their driveway and hold things up to listen to the end of. GREENE: It was like he was waiting for that moment. MARTIN: I love, David, that it's called 'Pictures On The Radio' because as the book points out, Gilkey - we all called him Gilkey - Gilkey was ready with a quick comeback if any of his photojournalist friends from print publications tried to give him a hard time about working for the radio, right? It's called 'Pictures On The Radio.' His friends and colleagues David Greene and Julie McCarthy both introduce chapters in it.

David Gilkey's work is now featured in a new book. It's do the visuals, do the stories - do they change somebody's mind enough to take action? If we're doing our part, it gets people to do their part. He once told a colleague his work is not just taking pictures. David had reported from all over the world, ready to go anywhere at any moment. Both David and Zabi were killed in a Taliban ambush on their convoy on June 5, 2016. NPR photojournalist David Gilkey was on a military embed in Afghanistan with three other NPR colleagues, including local journalist Zabihullah Tamanna. Four and a half years ago, we lost a dear friend and colleague.
