He was a Pulitzer Prize finalist for his photo coverage of the battle of Fallujah. Sinco emigrated from the Philippines as a child and grew up in the Pacific Northwest. He has a bachelor’s degree in journalism from the University of Washington.
Los Angeles Times photographers discuss the challenges of covering the West Coast on multiple fronts – the crisis on the Mexico border, the devastating California wildfires, the increasing homeless population in the Los Angeles area and the Hollywood Industry.
