Fritz Berger: The Photographer of Memories

The best thing about a picture is that it never changes, even when the people in it do.

In the spring of 1962, members of the Christian Peace Service aid group flew in from Bern, Switzerland and settled in the poorest villages in all of Greece. Led by photographer and social worker Fritz Berger, the group itself had one purpose: the provision of aid and development services to local communities inhabiting the southwest region of Lefkada. What followed were revolutionary advancements that would leave their lives forever changed.
