Might be of interest for some Luggers: The iranian photographer 
Jahangir Razmi, anonymous winner of the 1979 Pulitzer award, had kept 
secret his identity since 1979, when he shot "one of the best news 
pictures ever" (Quote british photojournalist Tom Stoddard). Razmi 
has now been found and identified by a Wall Street Journal reporter, 
and agreed to accept the award.
