AUSTIN (September 20, 2009)--The multimillion-dollar archive of the late Pulitzer-Prize-winning Associated Press photojournalist Eddie Adams has been donated to the University of Texas' Dolph Briscoe Center for American History.
Adams was known for his images of the Vietnam War and amassed hundreds of awards.
He won the 1969 Pulitzer Prize for an Associated Press photo of a communist guerrilla being executed in a Saigon street.
UT President William Powers Jr. announced Friday that Adams' widow, Alyssa Adams, had donated the archive, valued between $7 million and $8 million, to UT.
She retains the copyrights to the images.
Adams also worked for Time magazine and Parade magazine and died in 2004 at age 71 from complications of Lou Gehrig's disease.
