Visual Storytelling

Kevin Lee Wurm

Prior to joining MLK50 as a visual storyteller, Kevin Wurm worked as a Tennessee-based freelance photographer who weaves portraiture, journalism, and documentary storytelling to elevate overlooked stories and the people who tell them. Wurm's images are guided by empathy and purpose, capturing moments that reveal deeper truths. Self-taught and driven by a strong desire to grow, his journey has led to work featured in Reuters, The New York Times, The Washington Post, and more.

MLK50: Justice Through Journalism

MLK50: Justice Through Journalism is an award-winning nonprofit digital newsroom, and focused on the intersection of poverty, power and policy. Its vision echoes Dr. Martin Luther King’s dream: a nation where all residents, especially workers, have enough resources to thrive, and where public and private policy supports their success.
