Bio
Chicago-based documentary photographer and director Alex Garcia's storytelling career has included working on staff for more than 20 years at the Los Angeles Times and the Chicago Tribune, where he was part of a team that won the Pulitzer Prize in Explanatory Reporting. He left the Tribune to start Three Story Media, and soon after was part of a team that won a Titanium Lion at the Cannes Lions Festival of Creativity.
Alex has been published in several book projects and has been called by HarperCollins "one of the world's leading photojournalists." His documentary background continues to inform his work and approach to subjects both in still and film projects.
He has served on the board of the National Press Photographers Association and as an adjunct professor at the Northwestern University Medill Journalism program and the School of Visual Arts - NY.
Having traveled to Cuba for 20 years as a Tribune foreign correspondent, New York Times Journeys tour leader and family member, Alex started Cuba Workshops, LLC which brings visitors to the island on authorized trips to photograph and build bridges across cultures.
