History and impact of Agent Orange
Admiral Elmo Russell Zumwalt, Jr., was one of the commanders who issued an order for Agent Orange to be used during the Vietnam War, including where his son, Elmo Russell Zumwalt III, was fighting. After Elmo Zumwalt III was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and Hodgkin's disease in the early 1980s, they co-wrote the book "My Father, My Son," to discuss their beliefs that the Agent Orange was the cause. Johnson photographed the Zumwalts as part of her work with Black Star photo agency.
