I want to play a clip from that moment.
In it, your husband Paul speaks first.
Hearing that clip now, how did it play to you?
Did he sign the photojournalist prenup?
You say in the film that raising kids is harder than war, which is a great one line joke.
But is any of that bit true for you?
In your memoir, It's What I Do, you write, when I return home and rationally consider the risks, the choices are difficult.
But when I'm doing my work, I'm alive.
So when you're back home, how do you grapple with that?
Lindsay, I want to talk about how you arrived at doing all this work in the first place, which I believe began back in 1996, working at the Buenos Aires Herald, where you were paid $10 a picture.
At that point, did you know what photographer you wanted to be?
Well, hold on, Lindsay, hold on.
Why do you think you were so relentless?
Why did you keep badgering them?
But is the dog in this because you're the youngest of four growing up in Connecticut?
Like, where does that.
Come 2000, in your late 20s, you're working in Pakistan and Afghanistan under Taliban rule.
But it wasn't until the attacks of 9-11 that the trajectory of your career changed.
Can you take me back to the first time you were bombed in March of 2003 in northern Iraq?
