Photo of construction worker's heroism earns Pulitzer

It's not often that the AEC industry crosses paths with the committee that hands out Pulitzer Prizes, but there are exceptions to every rule, and this year represents one of those exceptions. A photo in the Des Moines Register showing a construction worker rescuing a woman from the Des Moines River took home the honor this year. Congratulations to all involved, from the photographer to the construction worker to the woman he saved from the raging river.
