Timothy Alistair Telemachus Hetherington (5 December 1970 – 20 April 2011)[2] was a British photojournalist.[3] He produced books, films and other work that "ranged from multi-screen installations, to fly-poster exhibitions, to handheld device downloads"[4] and was a regular contributor to Vanity Fair.[5]
He was best known for the documentary film Restrepo (2010), which he co-directed with Sebastian Junger. Restrepo won the Grand Jury Prize for best documentary at Sundance Film Festival 2010[6] and was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature in 2011.[7] Hetherington won various awards including the 2008 World Press Photo of the Year.[8]
He was killed by shrapnel from either a mortar shell or an RPG fired by Libyan forces while covering the 2011 Libyan civil war.[citation needed]
