Ever After: Finding Fulfillment in the Aftermath of War | Elliott Woods | TEDxCharlottesville

Elliott Woods, Iraqi veteran and acclaimed photo-journalist, became a journalist to tell the stories of war veterans to a public that he believes is not paying attention. As he states in his Talk “I want you to stare deeply into the darkness that lives inside so many of us who have gone to war and come home”. Elliott Woods is a writer and photographer based in Bozeman, Montana. He is an Iraq veteran, and has covered the Middle East and Afghanistan extensively as a journalist. His work has received numerous honors, including the 2011 National Magazine Award for Multimedia. Elliott is a graduate of the University of Virginia and a contributing editor at the Virginia Quarterly Review. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at http://ted.com/tedx
