RealAudio: Ed Clark tells the story
of his most famous photograph.

Embodying the grief of a nation, Graham Jackson sorrowfully plays Goin' Home for President Roosevelt for the last time.

This photo ran full-page in the April 17, 1945, issue of Life, which was dedicated to the death of a most beloved President. This photograph remains as one of the icons of photojournalism, and endures well as an example of the kind of excellence that typified Life photography and the photographic career of Ed Clark.
