His mother was a Quaker with fervently anti-war opinions, while his father was an architect who was Roman Catholic. Browne attended Friends Seminary, a Quaker school in Manhattan, from kindergarten through to twelfth grade.[citation needed] He later attended Swarthmore College in Pennsylvania and studied chemistry.[1][2]Career[edit]Browne's career in journalism began when he was drafted during the Korean War.[3] He was assigned to the Pacific edition of the Stars and Stripes, where he worked for two years. He worked for the Middletown Times Herald-Record,[4] then joined the Associated Press (AP). He worked in Baltimore from 1959 until 1961, at which point he was made chief correspondent for Indochina. On June 11, 1963, he took his famous photographs of the death of Thích Quảng Đức , a Vietnamese Mahayana Buddhist monk who burned himself to death at a busy road intersection in Saigon, in protest against the persecution of Buddhists by the South Vietnamese government led by Ngô Đình Diệm. He won a Pulitzer Prize for International Reporting[5] and received many job offers, eventually leaving the AP in 1965.Browne worked for ABC TV for about a year but became dissatisfied with television journalism,[1] and worked freelance for several years. He did a year's fellowship at Columbia University with the Council on Foreign Relations. In 1968, he joined The New York Times, becoming its correspondent for South America in 1972. Having worked as a chemist prior to becoming a journalist,[3] in 1977 Browne became a science writer, serving as a senior editor for Discover. He returned to the Times in 1985, and went on to cover the Persian Gulf War in 1991.Death[edit]Browne died in Hanover, New Hampshire on August 27, 2012, of complications from Parkinson's disease.[6][2] He was 81 years old.Awards and recognition[edit]Browne's photo of Thích Quảng Đức's self-immolation, during which he remained perfectly still.
