Pulitzer Prize–winning AP photographer Slava “Sal” Veder died at 99. Renowned for covering pivotal California moments—from Ronald Reagan’s governorship to campus protests and the Moscone–Milk era—Veder mentored younger photographers and was remembered by colleagues as kind and humble. He retired in Camino, California, and is survived by three children, eight grandchildren and 12 great-grandchildren.
