I have been told that the darkroom technician who cooked the film is alive and living part time in Paris. I believe his name is John Morris. He was one of the photo team technicians during the war. And has distinguished himself through the years working with the greats.


Dennis Banks is universally credited with having been the lab tech who cooked the film. Others were present, but Banks seems to have been the guilty party. He later personally apologized to Capa for the error. Capa himself never said a word of reproach to Banks.

See the Wikipedia entry on Capa for discussion.
