She is currently a contract photographer with Zuma Press. Guzy specializes in long-term documentary human interest projects and spot news and feature stories. Her Pulitzer Prizes were won for her coverage of the devastating mudslide in Armero, Colombia (1986), a military intervention in Haiti (1995), refugees fleeing violence in Kosovo (2000) and the aftermath of a massive earthquake in Haiti (2011). In addition to her Pulitzer Prize credentials, Guzy has been named Photographer of the Year by the National Press Photographers Association three times and eight times by the White House News Photographers Association.
