A kiss that saved a life....

Rocco Morabito won the 1968 Pulitzer Prize for Spot Photography for this photograph The Kiss of Life. Apprentice lineman J.D. Thompson is breathing life into the mouth of another apprentice lineman, Randall G. Champion, who hangs unconscious after receiving a jolt of high voltage. Morabito was driving on West 26th Street in July 1967 on another assignment when he saw Champion dangling from the pole. He called an ambulance and grabbed his camera. Champion recovered. In 2000, Rocco Morabito, at the age of 79, said, I get requests all the time from people who teach mouth-to-mouth resuscitation and have proof that it works. I am proud of that.
