ALT Vashon Jordan, Jr., 24, Director of Digital Media and Photography, Office of Governor J.B. Pritzker Born and raised on the South Side, Vashon Jordan uses photography and videography to showcase authentic stories and moments that reflect the people of Chicago. He started his career as a photo intern at the Chicago Tribune in 2021 and now works as the director of digital media and photography in Gov. J.B. Pritzker's office. From the moment he picked up a camera, Jordan has used it as a tool to uplift the stories and beauty of Chicago. In 2020, he captured over 17,000 photographs at dozens of protests across Chicago, most against police brutality. He used social media to provide live updates of what was happening on the ground and amassed over 10,000 new social media followers within two weeks. After the summer of 2020, Jordan self-published a photo book called Chicago Protests: A Joyful Revolution to ensure that those stories were forever documented.
