Steve McCurry capaviated her beautiful green eyes with his camera. I would like to keep my focus on her. I thought it would good to link Mr. McCurry in my paper.

I would start by taking a look at his website. It has lots of information regarding his Bio and his foundation the URL is:

http://www.stevemccurry.com/main.php

National Geographic has also done a biography on him, which might be more helpful because this is where you got the picture and story of the Afghan Girl. The URL for that is:

http://photography.nationalgeographic.com/photography/photographers/photographer-steve-mccurry.html

I also attached a couple of interviews I found with him regarding this particular picture. These articles come with a full MLA citation.

I hope these resources help.
