David Charles Peterson is an American photographer and journalist, winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Feature Photography in 1987.

David Charles Peterson was born on October 22, 1949, to John Edward Peterson and Florence Athene, in Kansas. In 1971 he graduated with a Bachelor of Art in Journalism from the University of Kansas. Two years later he received a Bachelor of Science in Journalism. In 1975 he became the staff photographer at the Topeka Capital-Journal, after two years he switched to the Des Moines Register.[1]

In 1986 Peterson took a sabbatical and split it into three parts, a month per season, to cover the growing cycle and work on the “Farm Owners”, the stories of Iowa farm families in the middle of a six-year-long crisis.[2] The chronicle depicted the tragedy of a family forced to sell their land, a deserted town, and a woman, visiting her husband’s grave after his suicide. In 1986 he was awarded the National Press Photographers Association Prize. In 1987 Peterson was chosen by jurors of the Pulitzer Prize for Feature Photography for ‘depicting the shattered dreams of American farmers’. He also received the Regional Photographer of the Year Award in 1979-81.[3]

Married to Adele Mae Johnson, has three children.[1]
