The Kiss of Life - Pulitzer Prize in 1968
In 1968, photographer Rocco Morabito took a drive through Jacksonville, Florida, when he saw an electric company lineman hanging unconscious from a utility pole after being electrocuted. He quickly took a photo before calling for help. Another lineman climbed up to give mouth-to-mouth resuscitation, and Morabito captured this life-saving moment.
The image, later known as “The Kiss of Life,” won the Pulitzer Prize for spot news photography that same year.
