A conversation with photojournalist Jean-Marc Giboux about polio eradication, documenting Vicarious Trauma across the city of Chicago and how India, France and the City of Chicago have infused his professional practice and personal perspective on life and work.

In 2019, he exhibited a photo essay about polio eradication as part of the “SOME PEOPLE” group photography and art exhibition in Chicago.
