Out of frame, is the body of a young man shot and killed by unidentified assailants while eating dinner near his home. Tasneem Alsutan, a Saudi Arabian investigative reporter, was recognized for her work focusing on social and gender issues in the Middle East. The shot shows the defiant face of a woman taking to the road a matter of hours before the driving ban was lifted. American freelance photojournalist, Mary Calvert, was praised for her harrowing reporting on the sexual abuse of men in the US military. Lopez, Calvert and Alsutan will be honored at a ceremony this June in Washington D.C.
