The Clinton Global Initiative

I'm an AOL photo editor based in New York City and was assigned to cover the Clinton Global Initiative, a non-partisan group that is a catalyst for action. The annual event brings together a community of global leaders to devise and implement innovative solutions for global problems.

Covering the CGI was exciting, grueling, and challenging all at the same time. With much of the open press events occurring onstage with fairly few photo positions, it's a mix of positioning, composition, and a little luck to create memorable images that stand out.  Much of our coverage was based around Thursday night's event. AOL News' The Daily Pulse has in-depth coverage where you can read, vote, comment, and see photos and video.

I think AOL News went far beyond other online news coverage of this important initiative, and I was happy to play a part.
