Glenn Asakawa (Jour) returned to Boulder in 2008, after nearly 25 years working as a newspaper photojournalist in Boulder, Los Angeles and Denver, to work for his alma mater as a staff photographer in its marketing and PR department. Asakawa was recently promoted to director of multimedia production. He was on the photo staff that was awarded the 2000 Pulitzer Prize for breaking news photography for coverage of the Columbine shooting. A career high point happened when the Dalai Lama grabbed ahold of his hand while he was taking a selfie with His Holiness during a 2016 visit to CU Boulder.
