My grandpa’s photos from the Congo (1962-1963)

My grandpa, an Irish-born actor and filmmaker, travelled all over the world for various documentary projects. In particular, I wanted to share these three amazing photos from the Congo.

  1. Mother and child, Katanga, 1962.

  2. Child eating a meal. My grandpa’s caption simply reads: “Congo, I think, 1963.”

  3. The third photo is also captioned “Congo, 1963.” I suspect the white guy in the photo could be a colleague of my grandpa’s, perhaps a cameraman or something like that.
