Damian Parer: Cameraman - Softcover
During World War II Damien Parer became Australia's best-known war photographer, his many cinema documentaries of the war (for Cinesound News) eventually winning Australia's first 'Oscar'. He was on more front lines and probably saw more close-up action than any serving soldier. He became immensely popular, not only with the cinema public but with the serving soldiers and airmen: his unique personality endeared him to great numbers of serving troops. He took many personal risks in pursuit of his photographs, and was killed in action in 1944, at the age of thirty-two.
