Baltimore Sun Staff Photos by Kim Hairston

Staff reporter Jonathon Bor and staff photographer Kim Hairston spent a lot of months working on a powerful series of stories exploring the link between HIV, prostitution and addiction. The harrowing photo of 45-year-old Sharon Williams says more quickly and powerfully about the mental and physical erosion of drugs than any photo I have seen in the pages or on baltimoresun.com.
