Summary
I first heard of fixers when I participated in the Foundry Photojournalism Workshop in Istanbul in summer 2010, fresh out of college. Each student had to pursue their own photo stories over the course of a week, and workshop organizers provided us with a list of local fixers. Though I had taken undergraduate courses on international journalism, I had only the vaguest of ideas about what I was supposed to ask of the people on the list.
