Dith Pran, the photojournalist who survived torture and starvation by the Khmer Rouge and whose story was told in the 1984 movie "The Killing Fields" died March 30 in New Brunswick, NJ after a brief battle with pancreatic cancer.
His death was announced yesterday by Sydney Schanberg, a former New York Times correspondent who worked with Pran in the early 1970s covering the rise of Pol Pot and Cambodia's civil war.
Bill Keller sent this out to his newsroom today: To all of us who have worked as foreign reporters in frightening places, Pran reminds us of a special category of journalistic heroism—the local partner, the stringer, the interpreter, the driver, the fixer, who knows the ropes, who makes your work possible, who often becomes your friend, who may save your life, who shares little of the glory, and who risks so much more than you do.
