The 2008 USPS American Journalists series honors five courageous reporters who risked — and in some cases gave — their lives in pursuit of the truth:
- Martha Gellhorn — War correspondent who covered nearly every major conflict of the 20th century
- George Polk — CBS correspondent murdered in 1948 while investigating the Greek Civil War
- Eric Sevareid — CBS News broadcaster and one of Edward R. Murrow's legendary "Boys"
- John Hersey — Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and author of Hiroshima
- Ruben Salazar — Pioneering Latino journalist killed while covering the 1970 Chicano Moratorium
A powerful collectible for journalism enthusiasts, history lovers, and stamp collectors.
