OverviewMy Camera, My Life is the remarkable life-story of cameraman Mohinder Dhillon - an epic journey that takes us through some of the most dramatic and harrowing events of the 20th Century, both for Africa and the world. From the independence struggles that ended decades of European colonial rule in Africa to the protracted Cold War conflicts of the post-colonial era and the ravages of successive brutal dictatorships, Mohinder was there on the frontlines, recording for us slices of history-in-the-making. Mohinder's story sheds fascinating light on the antics of contemporary African leaders, including Emperor Haile Selassie, Jomo Kenyatta, William Tubman, Julius Nyerere, Milton Obote, Idi Amin, and Robert Mugabe. Also documented in this memoir are events Mohinder filmed in Aden, Vietnam, Iran, Afghanistan, and elsewhere. To the fore throughout is his abiding sense of compassion, both in his approach to photojournalism and documentary filmmaking and as a committed humanitarian. 'Mo Dhillon, cameraman extraordinary, humanitarian, witness to history ... his life-story is a must-read!' David Smith, former ITN correspondent and Special Advisor to the UN Secretary General 'Mohinder Dhillon is a one-off - a pioneering news cameraman of the kind we may never see again.
