ZURICH —
The woman in
one of the most
famous pictures
of the 20th cen-

12 about her life
since the picture

nine years old in
1972 when she

tographed run-
ning naked
down a road in
Vietnam after
being hit with
napalm from an
air attack.
The picture

rapher Nick Ut a
Pulitzer Prize

of the symbols of
the Vietnam
War, as well as
one of the most
famous ever
taken.
Although badly
burned over half
her body, Phuc
survived and
after 17 opera-
tions she defect-
ed to Canada.
She now lives in
Toronto and is a
UNESCO
Goodwill
Ambassador

message of rec-
onciliation and
peace.

the event will go

Foundation,

that help child
victims of war.
Pastor Harry
Frielink of
Exeter Christian
Reformed
Church said
Phuc has recent-
ly felt called to
speak through
churches about
the need for for-
giveness.
"As a pastor,
you see how
much that mes-
sage is needed
in marriages
and family rela-
tionships," said
Kim Phuc, who was photographed during the Vietnam War running from an air attack in 1972, will speak in

ness."
