Richard Falco is the President of Vision Project. As a photographer, he has done assignments on four continents in over thirty-five countries and has worked for many major publications, including: Time, Life Magazine, Newsweek, Geo, New York Times, US News & World Report, to name a few.

He has taught at a number of universities and schools; notably, The New School for Social Research; Sacred Heart University; several State Universities of New York, and the School of Visual Arts.

During the last several decades, critically acclaimed photographer Les Stone has chronicled the human cost of conflict in Iraq, Afghanistan, Israel, Sierra Leone, Kosovo, Liberia, Somalia, Cambodia, Vietnam, and many others. He is the winner of several World Press Photo Awards and Picture of the Year Awards. He has covered stories often ignored by the mainstream media. Stone’s
work straddles the worlds of photojournalism and fine art photography. His images are powerful not only because they bring to our attention important and often overlooked people and events, but
because they do so in a visually arresting way. Stone's work has been published throughout the world: including National Geographic, Time, Life, Stern, Fortune, The New York Times, The New York Times Magazine, Newsweek, Mother Jones, Witness Magazine to name a few. He is a staff member at Vision Project.
