Sadly, the record ends two years before his assassination. I am eager to use other resources and trace his shifting personas: the idealist, the colonel, the bogeyman, etc. 7/7
Of course, a world leader can never hope to escape caricature. 6/7
In the 1980s, when Gaddafi images proliferate, French media seems to gravitate toward laughing shots, while U.S. media goes the strongman route. 5/7
There are many photos of him saluting. 3/7
The contrast between early and late photographs of him is striking. In 1971, he looks almost timid despite his military getup. By 2009, he’s staring straight into the lens, Africa brooch gleaming in the lights. 2/7
With the help of the NYPL Picture Collection, I am exploring representations of Muammar Gaddafi throughout his political career. 1/7

Please send a letter to support your NYC libraries! nypl.org/speakout #NoCutsToLibraries! @NYCMayor and @NYCCouncil, library funding is essential! New Yorkers need the vital services our libraries provide. investinlibraries.org
Please support the libraries of New York from draconian budget cuts in FY24 @NYCMayor and @NYCCouncil #NoCutsToLibraries. The good that libraries do cannot be calculated, and should come from its whole community.
Hey @NYCMayor & @NYCCouncil, it’s us, New York City residents. We need our libraries! The proposed budget cuts will mean shortened hours and reduced resources, and could end weekend service at branches across the city. #NoCutsToLibraries investinlibraries.org/dayofaction
