Bill Hudson Dies

Bill Hudson, an Associated Press photographer whose searing images of the civil rights era documented police brutality and galvanized the public, died Thursday in Jacksonville, Fla. He was 77.

Hudson was in Birmingham, Ala., when black demonstrators defied a city ban on protests in 1963, and police turned their dogs on marchers, and again in Selma, Ala., when fire hoses were officers' weapon of choice.

Besides his wife, Hudson is survived by a sister, Sharon Garrison, of Laguna Beach, Calif.

Rest In Peace, Bill.
